The piece being worked on the constantly humming woodturning lathe is starting to take shape. A one-off artwork is in the making. The art of woodturning is precision work, whereby wood is skillfully chipped away at, resulting in a work of art. Inspired by the colours and shape of the wood, this handcraft throws up individual and modern creations. This is how unique pieces come into being that enhance their surroundings: vases or bowls, as well as fruit, spheres and fine jewellery made of wood. Lots of hours of work and passion lie behind these hand-made pieces.

Bendy twigs are turned into artistic one-off items with skillful handiwork. Carefully, each twig is wound around the basic weaving frame. This does not just require lots of strength and stamina, but also skill and a certain knack. Techniques handed down through the ages are successfully combined with new and innovative ideas to create works of art in various forms. From handy baskets to decorative, delicate woven objects such as bowls, lanterns and bags – there’s no end to the scope for creativity.

Crochet hooks, thread, scissors and genuine sheep’s wool from South Tyrol. The art of crocheting has gone on for generations and is still being passed onto children and grandchildren. There are plenty of unique ways to create artistically crocheted items – from using different patterns to varying materials and shapes. Clothes and rugs, as well as soft cushions and blankets, are rustled up with lots of skill and creativity. It’s not only hours of work, but also lots of love for handcrafts and tradition that go into each of the textile items that farmers make at the farm.
