Hof Lütte Lohe liegt vor den nördlichen Toren Hamburgs, in der Oberalsterniederung.
Den Hof gibt es seit 1910 und er wird jetzt in vierter Generation bewirtschaftet. Zur Zeit werden 200 Kühe gemolken. Insgesamt werden 400 Tiere gehalten. Auf einer Fläche von 240 ha wird überwiegend Futter für die Rinder produziert. Wir betreiben noch Weidehaltung, d.h. die Kühe kommen im Sommer auf die Weide. Leben tun wir in einem Holzhaus mit Solarenergie, haben einen großen Garten und lieben die Weite und Weiden um uns herum. 3 Kinder gehören zum Hof, von denen eins auf dem Hof arbeitet. Fahrräder und ein Kanu bieten wir für Touren in der Umgebung oder zur Eisdiele. Ausserdem lieben wir Musik, Kultur und Geselligkeit und freuen uns besonders auf Menschen, die das mit uns teilen mögen. Wir haben WLAN.
______________________________________
Hof Lütte Lohe is situated just north of Hamburg, in the valley of the Alster river.
The farm has existed since 1910 and is now run in the fourth generation. 200 cows are currently being milked. All in all, 400 animals are kept, including dry cows and female offspring. 240 hectares of land are used mainly to produce feed for the cattle. Our cows are pasture-fed: in summer they graze in a meadow. We live in a wooden house with solar energy. We have a large garden and enjoy the wide view and the grassland around us. There is always plenty to do on the farm, of course. The surrounding countryside has excellent cycle paths and we have a canoe waiting to be used. There is also a fantastic ice cream parlour, and the centre of Hamburg is only 40 minutes away. The Baltic Sea can be reached easily by car in 1 hour. We enjoy music, cultural events and good company, and are especially happy to welcome Wwoofers who share our interests. From time to time we attend animal shows and auctions, to which you are warmly invited.
