Where to Buy Bio Fruit and Vegtables Near Baden

If you are looking for 'Bio' or organic food near Baden, I would like to recommend Herr and Frau Suter's farm near Baldegg. I was introduced to the little farm shop a by a friend about two years ago and we have been going ever since.

We go not so much because the food it organic, but because it is nice to be able to support a local business, that has good produce, and reasonable prices.

We usually stop by the farm to pick up a few things when we are biking in the area. Today was not different, expect for the fact that the road to the farm from Baden has been under construction for a few weeks now.

When we arrived today we found a nice table set up outside with a basket of fruit, some bread, and some fresh juice. Perched on the table was a sign thanking us for coming despite the constructions.

We went in to bu our normal staples, apples, onions, and right now raspberries are also in season. And to our surprise Frau Suter was there as well putting out new food. You may wonder why I was so surprised, I suppose you have to understand that this store is nothing more than a open door to a barn. Inside there is no register, no shop keeper, just a few shelves with things nicely labeled. In the corner you find a small table with a few pads of paper, a calculator, and kasse (Change Box) full of change

The entire store is based on the honor system. So rarely do you see someone there. This being the first time I had met Frau Suter we asked a few questions and learned that besides the fact that the construction will be lasting 4 more weeks she has lived on the farm from 34 years, while the farm has been in her husbands family for over 200 years.

So, once the roads are open, I suggest you take a trip to my favorite farm store. Get on the bus from Baden to Baldegg. You'll find the shop just across the street from the Munzlishausen bus stop. You'll recognize the place by the big strawberry shaped sign.

They also have a place to park if you have a car.
