Traditional Sourdough Rye in Switzerland part two

Traditional Sourdough Rye in Switzerland part two

July 11, 2016 in Breads, Swiss Farm Tour, Traditional Diet 2 Comments

This is the community building for Erschmatt, which had been for many generations the communal village oven, where they baked all of their bread. It is still used as a community building for teaching and functions, and of course the oven. Susan was our lovely guide and baking teacher, and served us wonderful fresh mint … Continue reading →

Traditional Sourdough Rye in Switzerland – part one

Traditional Sourdough Rye in Switzerland – part one

July 8, 2016 in Breads, Swiss Farm Tour, Traditional Diet 18 Comments

It has been a long time since I have worked on the rest of my pictures and stories from our amazing WAPF farm tour to Switzerland we took a few years ago. We visited some farms in between this rye village, but I will get back to those at a later date. My long distance … Continue reading →

Swiss Vending Machine

Swiss Vending Machine

November 9, 2014 in Photo of the Day, Swiss Farm Tour 4 Comments

Traveling by train back to our hostel caused quite a stir around the vending machine. Yes, there was the typical crap candy, but definitely a step up in the snack department from US vending machines. There also was a “life style” row, which had some different offerings. Cigarettes, lighters, red bull, condoms, pregnancy test, and … Continue reading →

Swiss Chicken Coop

Swiss Chicken Coop

November 8, 2014 in Poultry, Swiss Farm Tour Leave a comment

The Swiss are so ingenious. We walked the grounds of the horse farm, filled with every fruit tree and vegetable garden and while he was showing the group the chicken coop, I was fascinated with a small sheep shed. The feed and watering systems were set up so well, for ease in caring for the … Continue reading →

Farm Meal at the Horse Milk Farm

Farm Meal at the Horse Milk Farm

October 11, 2014 in Grass-fed Meat, Swiss Farm Tour, Traditional Diet 5 Comments

The delightful, serene surroundings at the horse milk farm definitely made us want to move in. The couple had graciously made a sumptuous homemade farm meal, which we all looked forward to. It took so much planning and care on our dear tour leader Judith, to seek out interesting farms and wonderful food for us, … Continue reading →

On the Way to the Swiss Horse Milk Farm

On the Way to the Swiss Horse Milk Farm

October 7, 2014 in Swiss Farm Tour 4 Comments

Why in the world would anyone want/need to milk horses?  Well, we were about to find out on our Swiss farm tour.  It was a long, lovely walk through the countryside, and I loved the brickwork and architecture of the farmhouses. I especially love how the Swiss stack their firewood. A lovely sight and sound … Continue reading →

Cow Bells and Metal Work in The Cheese Museum

Cow Bells and Metal Work in The Cheese Museum

September 20, 2014 in Swiss Farm Tour 1 Comment

Making cheese does take time and before, during and after the demonstration we walked among the fabulous artifacts of the museum. This is the last of posts from the cheese museum and the next series is the Horse Milk Farm. I adored the huge cow bells and other lovely cow tack with filigree metal work.

Lunch at the Appenzeller Cheese Factory

August 30, 2014 in Swiss Farm Tour, Traditional Diet 3 Comments

We sat outdoors for an exquisitely fresh lunch outside the Appenzeller Cheese factory before going in to the cheese museum for an authentic traditional cheese making demonstration over an open fire.  They had a much bigger menu in German. What can I say? It is easy to tell what Natanielle ordered. Oh my, incredibly good. … Continue reading →

Swiss Farm Store

Swiss Farm Store

August 21, 2014 in Swiss Farm Tour 4 Comments

Within walking distance from the hostel where we stayed in the first leg of our Swiss farm tour, was an absolutely mind-blowing farm store. Others in our group had visited this the evening before, but I had not wanted to miss out on getting raw milk from the dairy next door. We had about 20 … Continue reading →

Gardens At The Goetheanum

Gardens At The Goetheanum

August 8, 2014 in Swiss Farm Tour 6 Comments

On our first day of the Weston Price Swiss Farm Tour we visited The Goetheanum, viewed the gardens, shopped at the biodynamic farm stand, had a private tour of The Goetheanum, which was closed due to renovation, and ate a glorious locally grown meal at the restaurant there. A magical day to be sure. “The … Continue reading →
