Grennsted

Farm

Grennsted is a large farm located in the Walden neighbourhood in the Vöhren district. The Walda family owns the farm, with Sjoerd Walda as the current head of the family and owner of the neighborhood and farm. Grennsted is the family's main residence, where they live and breed, train, and trade horses. Surrounding the farm are smaller buildings where cotters, who work on the Walden pastures, reside. Grennsted comprises a main building with a large residential wing and stables for the most esteemed and personal horses of the Walda family. Surrounding the main building are additional stables where the family's other horses are kept, and where individuals can stable their own horses for a fee. There is also a spacious field for horse grazing, as well as a designated training area. In addition to caring for horses, the family cultivates a variety of crops used to feed the family and the horses, as well as for trading with neighbouring farms and businesses.

Location

Grennsted is located in Walden. Walden is a neighbourhood in the southern part of the Vöhren district in Amt Aldáer. It has been owned by the Walda family for decades, with Sjoerd Walda as the current Landlord/Baron. The main house on the land is the farm Grennsted, where the Walda family resides. Scattered around the area are small farms, mostly owned by cottagers or used by Grennsted labourers. A large part of the neighbourhood is covered by Grenn forest, an ancient forest with a high ecological value that is protected by the Walda family. Additionally, sections of the rivers Kild and Holle are also protected due to their contribution to the biodiversity of the neighbourhood and district. In addition to the main farm Grennsted, there is a watermill called ""The Black Poplar"" located on the banks of the river Holle. The mill is used not only by residents of the Walden estate but also by people from other areas. Currently, the watermill is used as a flour mill, oil press, and sawmill.
