Thijs & Jill’s Farm
Kopp
We are Jill and Thijs and come from the south of the Netherlands. Together with our Fleckvieh cows, dogs, and horses, we live on a small farm in Kopp in the Vulkaneifel. With great passion, we produce sustainable products with a strong focus on nature, the environment, and animal welfare.
Our goal is to keep the animals as naturally as possible. That’s why the calves are allowed to be with their mothers, ensuring a socially compatible and species-appropriate upbringing for the calves. Our cows, oxen, and calves are fed exclusively with herb-rich, self-harvested grass and hay, which is only enriched with natural fertilizers. In addition to grass and hay, they always have access to fresh water and mineral-rich salt licks. In spring, the cows are allowed outside to the pasture and stay there until late autumn.
Experience firsthand how your food is produced and how the cows live on our farm and pasture! We would be delighted if you chose to sponsor a cow or calf and support us as young entrepreneurs in agriculture. This way, you contribute to the optimization and strengthening of our farm, as well as to a species-appropriate and sustainable life for our cows!
