1st August Farm Brunch

Home-made plaited loaf, apple tart, hearty “rösti” potatoes with fried egg, plus cheese and meat platters and Bircher muesli. What could be better than to start Switzerland’s National Day with a copious farm brunch?

100% Swiss

A traditional 1^st August farm brunch is a fixed feature in many Swiss people’s diaries. For 30 years farming families throughout Switzerland have been extending invitations to a farm brunch. Whether in the stable, the barn or up on the alp – the offers are highly varied and specific to the individual farm. They all have one thing in common though – a hearty and delightfully prepared buffet with home-made and regional products in a unique farm setting. It doesn’t get more Swiss than this.

Booking

The 1^st August Farm Brunch is held every year between 09:00 and 13:00 on Switzerland’s National Day. You should contact the farming family directly for the details, costs and programme and also for booking. The contact details for your brunch farm can be found in the profile in the Farm Search. Since the number of seats is limited, you need to make a booking with the farming family.

My Buurezopf contains nothing but good humour and regional ingredients

As a farmer, seasonal and regional cuisine is very important to me. In particular, you can only get the best products if you use the best ingredients. Do you make sure to use regional and seasonal produce when cooking and baking? In this article, you are provided with good reasons for filling your shopping basket with such food in future.

On the farm

Have you ever taken a look inside a cowshed? Or asked yourself where your food comes from? Or visited a farm shop? Swiss farming families provide you with a warm welcome and are happy to show you everything there is to discover on their farm and which products they produce. See for yourself at the farm whether what you had imagined corresponds with real life. Will we see you soon?
