De Molkerij
Almost 30 years ago they could never have imagined that mother and daughter would ever have plans to process 400,000 kilos of milk. The family moved from the city to ‘t Bildt in 1990. “My mother wanted to go here because of the peace and space. She bought a goat for the children that we called Snow White. She began to milk the goat and used the milk to make butter, cheese, buttermilk, and yogurt for her own use. It was very idyllic.
Long Horn Farm
We want to take a broad and varied approach to promoting sustainability and health in relation to people, animals and nature. Soil and soil life, biodiversity, nature conservation, animals and crops, aquatic life and water quality are key concepts in this regard. Good physical and mental health is largely determined by lifestyle.
A good balance between work and sustainable relaxation, proper and healthy nutrition, and good care of the body, soul and spirit can contribute to this.
Hunter and Chef Arjen Biesma
Arjen Biesma is a Frisian hunter and chef known for his commitment to sustainable game management and the responsible use of wildlife meat, particularly geese. Based in Fryslân, he combines his knowledge of hunting with his experience as a chef and traditional meat processor. Biesma sees hunting as inseparable from responsibility: where geese cause a nuisance, he advocates not wasting the meat but using it in culinary preparations.
With products and dishes such as sausage, pâté, and smoked goose meat, he shows that wildlife can be not only functional but also tasty and accessible. Through his work, he wants to make people more aware of the origin of food and show that sustainability, tradition, and gastronomy can go hand in hand.

Fryslân Fungies
Everyone (or well, almost everyone) drinks coffee. But what far fewer people know is that only 0.2% of coffee beans end up in your cup of coffee. The rest is considered waste and thrown away. But not for much longer, if we have our way!
Fryslân Fungies was founded with the mission of making the circular economy tangible and edible. The impact we have on people, the environment and the economy is central to this. In order to make as much positive impact as possible, we have therefore set two impact objectives to which everything we do can be traced back.
Oester fabriek
In 2017, the idea arose to stimulate employment on our island with an industry that did not yet exist: oyster fishing and everything that goes with it. Working in a circular way, harvesting oysters by hand, organising excursions and setting up a web shop; much has already been achieved in recent years.
In June 2024, we opened a location at the harbour at Willem Barentszkade 22. Here you will find our gem: the oyster shop, bar and restaurant, where you can walk in to taste fresh wild Wadden Sea oysters or enjoy delicious seafood dishes. The shop also sells fun accessories, such as oyster plates and other maritime goodies. The De Parel apartment is fully ready for rental and offers a luxurious stay above the Oyster Factory.
