Roligheden in Skagen
In a small wooden cabin at Skovbrynet 38, Rikke and Josef sell organic vegetables, herbs, and flowers, all grown by hand. There is polite self-service available, and it's open every day of the week—except during the winter season.
SkagenOx
Between Nielstrup and Jerup at Skagensvej 360, Henriette and Martin sell organic meat from their grass-fed cattle. You can also find sausages from Slagter Munch, hand-peeled shrimp from Engelsviken in Skagen, and other local ingredients—all carefully selected.
Eskebæk Grønt
At Margit and Knud's organic farm with a farm shop on Hjørringvej 295, the selection is impressive: cabbage, root vegetables, tomatoes, cucumbers, aronia berries, white currants, and rhubarb. There are also ice cream, meat, jams, and flour from other local small producers.
Knappen - Langoustine sale
At Jensen Jordbær at Hestvangvej 6, 9300 Sæby, you can buy freshly caught langoustines from Knappen. The shellfish are caught with the MSC-certified vessel Stjerne, which guarantees a sustainable catch.
Jensen Jordbær (Strawberries)
Self-picked strawberries just taste better, and at Hestvangvej 6, you can pick to your heart's content at Claus and Charlotte's strawberry field. Also, be sure to visit the farm shop, which offers strawberry jam made from their own berries, honey from local beekeepers, freshly dug potatoes, raspberries, peas, and rhubarb.
Skovlykål
At the small family business on Kringelhedevej 37, kale is grown using traditional methods. This vitamin-rich, crispy, and flavorful kale is excellent for Danish dishes and as an extra boost in your green smoothie.
Den Glade Bondemand
You can’t help but feel good at Den Glade Bondemand on Stavadvej 351. Here, you'll find frozen cuts of beef and pork in the farm shop, and at the roadside stand, there are eggs, honey, jams, and potatoes, along with fresh and pickled vegetables.
Sønderhaven Gårdmejeri
Buy your cheese from Denmark's last true farm dairy, which produces cheese from milk from its own dairy cows. Sønderhaven Gårdmejeri is located at Stadevej 314, and here you'll find a variety of cheeses: comté, smoked white mold cheese, monk cheese, and many more.
Omfaun landbrug
Omfaun Landbrug is located at Slotsgade 8 in Dronninglund, run by Thomas and Frederikke. Here, they produce grass-fed eggs, grass-fed chickens, and grass-fed sheep and cows, all of which are free-range. You can also order a honeycomb or take a guided tour of the farm. You can order grass-fed eggs for collection in Nørresundby, Aalborg or Hasseris.
