More than 30 years ago, the Theiler family cultivated barrenwort on the farm for the first time and thus laid the foundation for herb cultivation in the Napf region. Today, several producers produce, dry, and process ten to fifteen tons of various herbs per year. Continuously learn about herbs and native wild plants. The Kräuterweg mostly follows natural paths over meadows, past forest edges, and herb fields, leading to the Theiler family herb farm. Marvel at the variety and the riot of color of the herbs in the show garden."
