Knuthenlund and organics

On 1 July 2007, Knuthenlund estate converted its farming operations to organic production, and in doing so became one of the very biggest organic farms in Denmark. In converting to organics, Knuthenlund embarked on a new chapter in its long history.


We have greatly looked forward to the great challenge of running the estate as an organic enterprise.

On Lolland we have some of the best farmland in Denmark, and possibly even the best climate. In our view, we must capitalise on this to supply the best produce in Denmark. Converting the estate to organic production is a major commitment, but we hope we can thereby demonstrate that there is an alternative approach to professional farming - one that takes both the working and natural environment into consideration as well as animal welfare.
