Jacobs Hoeve Cheese Farm | Henri Willig
In Katwoude on the Markermeerdijk lies one of Henri Willig's cheese farms, the Jacobs Hoeve.
Upon welcome, staff in original costume show how cheese is made. The cosy shop offers a wide selection of exclusive Henri Willig cheese, souvenirs and typical Dutch delicacies.
There is also the opportunity to visit Henri Willig's organic Jersey farm, in the potting shed in the backyard. Henri Willig built this new shed especially for his herd of Jersey cows. The potting shed is a barn type that aims to make the animals as comfortable as possible in order to stimulate their natural behaviour. Henri Willig hopes that everyone who visits the barn will also learn something from it and has made room in the barn for a "self-guided" tour, fun and educational for young and old.
