Animal residents

Around 200 animals live together peacefully on Tante Martha's farm. Every single animal has its very special story and gives Tante Martha a profile. Following we would like to introduce you to our residents and our philosophy.

Animals

 

Many visitors to the Tante Martha farm  are inspired by animal interactions. This creates formative and valuable moments for both.

Philosophy

 

At Tanta Martha's every living being is looked after with dignity, mindfulness, respect and love and is part of the family.

 

We respect every living being on earth and strive for a life in symbiosis with everything.

 

In our opinion, it is inevitable that people's values ​​and way of approaching animals - especially towards so-called farm animals - change and transform into a new form of fair and sustainable thinking and acting.

 

Being together with happy and free beings is a great gift and blessing.

The 3 proud old deer have always been here - they are the witnesses of the former deer farm who remained on the farm. The four alpaca stallions come from breeding and hobby farms and should have gone to be slaughtered because of their "unsightly" appearance
