5 farms to pick your own fruit in Hamburg
Whether apples, nuts or vegetables - they taste the best when they are fresh. In big cities, however, one's own harvest is often small due to limited cultivation capacities. Fruit and vegetable farms in the surrounding area of Hamburg provide a remedy and invite you to try regional and fresh vitamin bombs. The (self-)harvest season promises fun for the whole family. No registration, prior knowledge or utensils are necessary. We show you where you can gather fresh fruit and vegetables in Hamburg.
1.To the Vier- und Marschlande for the harvest
The participatory gardening promises fun for small and large amateur gardeners. From May to September is self harvest time. Fresh fruit and vegetables can be picked in the fields and greenhouses of the vegetable farm. There is a choice of everything that is in season. The participatory gardening is also suitable for short-tempered excursionists: knives, spars and support are available directly on site.
2.Pure nature
The fruit orchard "Haseldorf" relies on naturalness. Chemical agents do not enter the garden. Everything here is pure nature. The fruit trees bear over 180 different varieties of apples, pears and plums. There are no opening hours. Harvesting is possible as long as the trees bear fruit.
3.Tradition meets organic quality
Discover close to nature: At Herzapfelhof, you can experience at first hand how fruit is grown and harvested in harmony with nature. Old traditions and the highest organic standards come together here.
4.Hamburg's first fruit filling station
Ever heard of a service station that serves vitamins instead of fuel? If not, it's time for a visit to the Alte Land near Hamburg. Here is Hamburg's first fruit filling station, which supplies all visitors with different fruits and vegetables depending on the season. In autumn, for example, you can look forward to apples, pears, nuts, quinces and oranges.
5.Golden autumn in a sea of pumpkins
At the Bartels farm in Wenzendorf, everything revolves around the trendy vegetable of autumn: the pumpkin. Bright orange, bright yellow, green, dotted and patterned - every pumpkin is unique. Once you've finally made up your mind, the only question is: to eat or to look at? So maybe take a walk through the maize maze first - after that you'll be able to see much more clearly.
