Description
Our farm is specialized in breeding and processing of Mangalitza pigs. The animals are all free ranged (about 150 pcs) and are fed with the grains from the farm. We further breed different kind of poultries, like chickens, ducks, geeses, turkeys, ..). Since 6 years we do have Jersey cows and we milk 2 of them. From the milk we make our own cheese, butter and yogurt. Our farm is managed on subsistence. We also organize workshop days at home to show the people the old farmhome slaughter.. The farms is located northwest, about 40 km from Vienna - in the wine district.
During the wintertime we do have our slaughter and processing season.
Unser Betrieb hat sich auf die Zucht und Verarbeitung von Mangalitzaschweinen spezialisiert. Die Tiere leben im Freiland (ca. 150 stk) und werden mit dem Futter aus dem eigenen Betrieb gefüttert. Weiteres befinden sich auf unserem Hof noch viele untersch. Geflügelrassen (Hühner, Enten, Gänse, Puten,..). Seit 6 Jahren habe wir auch Jersey Kühe und 2 davon melken wir. Daraus machen wir unseren eigenen Käse, Butter und joghurt. Unser Hof wird auf Subsistenzbasis bewirtschaftet. Wir veranstalten auch regelmäßig Tage im In- und Ausland, an denen wir den Leuten Hausschlachtungen zeigen. Der Betrieb liegt NW, ca. 40 km von Wien entfernt - im Weinviertel.
Während der Wintermonate haben wir unsere Schlachtsaison.Types of help and learning opportunities

With us, there is always plenty to do. Feed the animals, feed (mucking out, sprinkle), fix things. Gardening (vegetables, fruits, flowers). Because our farm is also an old farmhouse, there are of course sometimes construction works to do, or do craft things. Mainly, though, is the care of the animals and the garden in the center.
Bei uns gibt es immer viel zu tun. Tiere füttern, versorgen (ausmisten, einstreuen), Dinge reparieren. Gartenarbeiten (Gemüse, Obst, Blumen). Da unser Gehöft auch ein altes Bauernhaus ist, gibt es natürlich auch manchmal leichte Bauarbeiten zu erledigen oder handwerkliche Sachen zu tun. Hauptsächlich jedoch steht die Betreuung der Tiere und des Gartens im Mittelpunkt.Languages
