We currently have apricots in our sales container—but not always the same variety.
We don’t strip a tree bare all at once; instead, we walk selectively through the rows and harvest only the fruit that’s truly ripe. The rest gets to hang on for a few more days and soak up more sun. ☀️

Our own variety, the E3, is currently available exclusively at our sales container. It’s large, very firm, and really sweet. The trees are still very young, so this offer is available only while supplies last. Feel free to stop by!

Currently in season: ☀️ Starblush (light, juicy, mild) and 🍒 Vulcano (dark, crisp, with a subtle tartness). Light and dark cherries – while stocks last! Do pop by in Beesenstedt.

Due to the high temperatures, our container will only be open until noon (12:00 p.m.) this weekend (June 27–28). Our seasonal workers are out working for you early in the morning while it’s still cool. It’s best to stop by in the morning!

The season is in full swing, and fresh fruit is waiting for you right by the container at the orchard. Follow us on Instagram (@obsthofschwitzky) so you don’t miss a thing!

Next week, our sales container will open right at the orchard in Beesenstedt – featuring fresh sweet cherries.

Tomorrow (12.11.2025) is the last day of sales for the honesty box this year. We would like to thank you for a fantastic season and look forward to next year.

Our farm shop is now open for you again – simple and convenient with our honesty box system. Right now, we’re offering crisp apples, juicy pears, and everything else that’s ripe on our trees.

Come by and enjoy fresh fruit!

On Wednesday, July 30th, we’ll be opening our farm shop at the container for the last time before the summer break. We’ll be back for you in September – then with fresh apples for self-service via the cash register.

We look forward to your visit!

Fresh look, same passion – our new website is live!
