Good Things at Farm Shops

Surround yourself with greenery when you visit places focused on plants, gardens, and flowers. Be amazed by the large greenhouse filled with vegetables and plants at Växthuset Rökingegård or be inspired to shop for locally produced goods at Graninge Köksträdgård and Eksjöhult småbruk. At Trädgård & Återbruk i Grönlund, you’ll get ideas for both the garden and the recycling corner – perfect for those who like garden life with a twist.

For those looking for locally produced ingredients or a unique selection, there are many opportunities to find truly delicious treasures at Löt gårdsmejeri, Liselund bryggeri & rökeri, Skeda Udde lanthandel, and Gårdsbutik Linghem. Here you can fill your basket with eggs, drinks, smoked delicacies, and more! Also, be sure to stop by Brokinds Affär, a classic country store offering both local treats, coffee, and ice cream in the sun.

Experience rural life for real – and meet the people behind the products. At Tuna Kungsgård, you can check out tractors, sheep, and a wonderful selection in the farm shop. At Björkeberg Lamm & Vilt gårdsbutik, you can buy game meat and meet horses, ducks, and curious lambs. Don’t miss Ingvastebo Kvarn & Såg where the mill spins, the forge crackles, and the café offers a pause with a historical feel.

For those who like to explore beautiful things for the home, the countryside is full of gems. Butik Säby Gård is newly opened and offers a sleek rural feel with sheepskins and interior design. At Billa Gård, greenhouses are combined with home inspiration, and at Haddorps Gårdsbutik, there is a wide range of both local food and fine details for the home – plus a café for those who want to stay a little longer. Trädgårdstorps Gård is also worth a visit, with clothes, interior design, and a perfect spot for a coffee with cake. For textile lovers, Elsvigs Mattor is a must – here beautiful blankets, fabrics, and runners are woven with feeling. And for those looking for something both practical and cozy, there’s Strumpboden, with compression stockings and other beneficial textile products.

Retro and second-hand finds
