Stureholms Gård is located on Stureholmsvägen in Ödåkra near Allerum, Sweden.

The property Stureholm was bought by master horseman Axel Brunnström in 1877. He then built most of the buildings that exist today, except the castle. In 1908, master horsemen Sture and Alice Brunnström took over the properties Lämnhult, Stureholm and Bjerbolund. Architect Ola Andersson made a proposal for the corps de logi on the Stureholm estate.

A park and garden facility suitable for the castle was carried out in 1913 by Helsingborg’s city gardener, Oscar Landsberg. The years during the First World War were economically difficult for agriculture. A good price meant that the property Lämnhult was sold to the company Weibulls in 1918. In 1925, the garden facility was supplemented with a gazebo, the teahouse was called it and so it is today.

1912 – Stureholms Gård on Stureholmsvägen in Ödåkra near Allerum, Sweden 🇸🇪.

Most of the buildings on Stureholm’s estate were built in the middle of the 19th century. The warehouse building on the left in the picture was built in 1888 and was originally used to store grain in several floors. After a fire on the farm in 1932, the building has been renovated.

About 30 people live on the farm today, including the Lars Brunnström family, who live on the Stureholm manor.

Obstgut Schönborn am Kellersee or Epona Farming is located on Sielbecker Landstraße in Eutin, Germany.

Apples have been grown on the Schönborn fruit estate since the end of the 19th century, including in combination with subcultures and berries as well as other types of fruit.

The orchard was a pomological center for research, exchange and development of new apple varieties. In this context, the Holsteiner Cox was discovered and bred for the first time on the Schönborn orchard in 1890. An apple that loves this location and has proven itself regionally to this day.

Due to its location, topography and microclimate zones, the orchard is predestined for the cultivation of exceptional fruits such as peaches, which were shipped individually wrapped in paper to St. Petersburg as early as the end of the 19th century. Since the 1990s, conventional fruit growing has been carried out on the estate, with a focus on the production of dessert apples.

Tradition and innovation have shaped the development and history. The Epona farming concept, unique in the region, is another milestone for the Schönborn fruit estate. The Schönborn fruit farm is located on the outskirts of Eutin in Ostholstein. It covers 90 hectares of property and consists of 75 hectares of agricultural land, 6 hectares of semi-natural mixed forest and biotopes and 9 hectares of farmland with buildings and farm roads.
There is a private hunt.

The Trautwein Farm (or The Famr as it was called the last years) was located on 515 Piermont Road in Closter, New Jersey, USA.

The Farm in Closter (still referred to Trautwein Farms by many) has closed it’s doors at 515 Piermont Road as of December 25th 2013. The farm has been serving the area since the late 1800’s, providing corn, strawberries, broccoli, pumpkins, asparagus, and rhubarb which were sold by the Trautwein family at a roadside stand. After purchasing the farm from the Trauwein family in 2002, the farm has been selling in-season, locally grown produce, baked goods, cold salads, sandwiches and more.

A new version of The Farm will be opening down the block in Closter Commons sometime later this year featuring more varied prepared foods, an expanded bakery and increased gourmet cheeses according to owner Ted Sollod. Fortunately for many fans they will continue to serve their homemade doughnuts.

The farm landscape in Closter has changed significantly in the last few years, with the greenhouse transformation (and subsequent public uproar of) Brooks Farm on Hickory Lane. Also the Abram Demaree Homestead launched their Country Farm Stand store a few years ago serving local, organic produce and prepared foods fives days a week with food sourced from their 14-acre farmland.

Feast at Round Hill is located at 110 Round Hill Road in Washingtonville, New York, USA.

Round Hill House dates back to the era of Daniel Brewster (1764–1841) a direct descendant of William Brewster, who came to America on the Mayflower in 1620.

Daniel Brewster built Round Hill between 1800–1820. Daniel had a son Thomas (1787–1856) who married Nancy Seely in 1819. They both lived and died here on the homestead.

Thomas and Nancy had a son, Henry, also born here at the homestead in 1828. There were three children from that son’s union with Harriet Halsey in 1854. All married and remained in the immediate area, one on the board farm, then part of Round Hill. Another married the daughter of Alden Goldsmith who then lived in the beautiful home on Route 208 known as Walnut Grove. Alden Goldsmith was the owner and trainer of the world-renown trotting champion, Goldsmith Maid.

The second son, Walter, who became a supervisor of the town of Blooming Grove, married a minister’s daughter, Elizabeth Hathaway. The Reverend Hathaway was then the pastor of historic Blooming Grove Church. The marriage of Elizabeth and Walter Brewster produced a son, Henry.

Today, Round Hill Road is a popular wedding location!

Henry was born in this house in 1898. He took Alice Hookey for his bride. They both lived here and had three daughters, Elizabeth, Nancy and Dorothy.

It is interesting to note that all these early Brewster men brought their wives home to Brewster house.

The house was sold in 1923 to Edward Van Horn. At that time the columns, brick wall and steps were added. The house was later sold to the Maloof family.

The house lay dormant for a while, and became a prominent restaurant in the 1960’s and 1970’s (Round Hill Restaurant, then Quail’s Hollow Restaurant).

In 1998 it was purchased and totally renovated by the present owners, Patrick Ruisi and Peter Kupersmith. They proclaim FEAST to be the “final word in catering” based in an exceptional historic Hudson Valley estate.

Washingtonville is a village in the town of Blooming Grove, Orange County, New York, United States. It is part of the Poughkeepsie–Newburgh–Middletown, NY Metropolitan Statistical Area as well as the larger New York–Newark–Bridgeport, NY-NJ-CT-PA Combined Statistical Area. The village is named in honor of George Washington.

The Hudson Valley (also known as the Hudson River Valley) comprises the valley of the Hudson River and its adjacent communities in the U.S. state of New York. The region stretches from the Capital District including Albany and Troy south to Yonkers in Westchester County, bordering New York City.

Yates Cider Mill is a cider mill located on East Avon Road in Rochester, Michigan.

The mill traces its roots to 1863, when it was known as Yates Grist Mill. In order for the mill to utilize water power, the Yates Dam was built. The Yates Mill became the Yates Cider Mill in 1876 when a cider press was installed into the existing water powered process and the Mill began producing apple cider. Custom apple pressing was done for local farmers, orchard owners and landowners who brought their apples to the Mill.

Today visitors to the Yates Cider Mill can watch cider being made, powered by a 26-inch turbine, which was installed in 1894. It is the original turbine from 1894 that is still in use today at the Mill. Recently, the turbine was removed, refurbished and reinstalled in order to preserve history and continue with the original tradition of making cider. A 58-inch culvert carries the water that provides the water power for the turbine underground from the dam across the street to the Mill.
