Meat Production, Farm Shop, and Dining Venue
The farm also includes sheep, free-range pigs, and beekeeping. Everything is processed and sold or served at the farm. Be sure to visit their charming farm shop, Landhandleriet, which is an experience in itself. Here you’ll find something for every taste, including local self-produced products (rapeseed oil, mustard, and cured sausages) and products from other suppliers. They also have a dining venue, Slakteriloftet, which can be rented for events and gatherings, where farm-produced, unprocessed food is served.
The Goal is to Utilize the Entire Cultural Landscape of the Farm
Initially, Berg Farm focused solely on grain production, but today they run a versatile operation that aims to utilize all the farm’s resources, including buildings, cultivated land, grazing land, and cultural heritage. In short, at Berg Farm, the goal is to make use of the entire cultural landscape in a sustainable business context.
