AWO Schultenhof
AWO Schultenhof stands in Dortmund-Renninghausen, within Hombruch, beside the Bolmke nature reserve. The historic farmhouse contains a farm shop, country café, outdoor seating, and a children’s playground. Greenhouses, fields, animal enclosures, and gardens give you a close view of working agriculture within the city.
The Workers’ Welfare Association runs this project to bring people with disabilities into ecological farming and gardening. Twenty-four residents live on site, while employees with and without disabilities grow grains, potatoes, vegetables, herbs, fruit, and flowers together. Bioland standards guide the work, which avoids pesticides and artificial fertilisers. Pigs, goats, chickens, and two donkeys called Joschi and Paul live around the grounds. The shop sells farm vegetables, meat from the on-site butchery, fresh eggs, other goods, and coffee specialities.
The chicken group collects, sorts, and stamps eggs for sale in the farmhouse. The pigs use outdoor enclosures, where you can watch them play and eat without feeding them.
