Description
What do cows do in winter and where are they in summer? What work needs to be done on the farm? Four farming families from Appenzell will inform you at the heart of the action. In their farms located in scenic spots, you can take a peek into the barn on Wednesdays or Saturdays, watch the feeding, and young and old learn interesting things about cows, bulls, calves, sheep, goats, milk, and machines. Get an overview of the many activities and challenges of Appenzell agriculture. Suitable footwear is recommended. To reach the remote farms, it is recommended to go hiking, drive there, or be transported by PubliCar. We will gladly assist you with your reservations. > All dates > Hiking proposal starting from Jakobsbad > Hiking proposal starting from Kronberg Registration: until the day of the event, 12:00 PM, by phone or email at Tourist Info Appenzell, Hauptgasse 38, 9050 Appenzell.
