Baksminde Organic Orchard
Your destination for organic delights in Asaa, North Jutland
A certified organic orchard by the North Jutland coast – apples, pears, berries and juice, with nature as our most important colleague.
At Baksminde we grow apples and pears following organic principles – state-controlled and certified. Alongside them we have berries, nuts and other fruit trees, and year by year we move closer to a permaculture ecosystem.
The idea is simple: nature can largely take care of itself if we give it the right conditions. So we plant diversely, choose old and robust varieties, and let animals be part of the orchard.
Principles and philosophy
How we grow: permaculture, diversity and animals in the orchard.
Products
Organic apples, pears and juice – from the farm shop or delivered to your door.
Activities
Guided tours, workshops and visits for kindergartens and schools.
Partners
Restaurants, cafés and shops: traceable produce straight from the orchard.
An orchard in development
Baksminde lies in Asaa in North Jutland, close to the sea. The climate is cool (hardiness zone 8B), the air salty and the soil clay – conditions that call for varieties and growing methods that suit the place.
We have not arrived, and that is not the point. We keep finding the balance between production and nature – with new trees, new bushes and new lessons every year.
