Driving over a small country lane through the Zuidbroekse Polder between Bergambacht and Berkenwoude, our fields and farm buildings loom on the horizon. You find yourself in the middle of the peat meadows of the \u201cGroene Hart\u201d region. Take a moment to enjoy the healthy air mixed with the fresh scent of silage grass, the polder and, of course, our cows. Looking towards the farm, you will recognise the large sheds full of our black &amp; white ladies. Take a closer look and you will see the thousands of solar panels on the roof and our brand new Hay Barn. The latter is much more that a Barn, a destination meeting location offering the very best views over the polder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"DJI 0210\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/cewWSkJ6-Uw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption>Schep Cheese Farm from the air<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Enterprising Farmers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We are often asked just how large our farm is.
