ArchitectureThe landscape-shaping object is one of the few typical Angelite three-sided courtyards, which was restored with the help of local craftsmen, in traditional architecture and using original materials. Of course, care was taken to ensure that the house can be operated as energy-efficiently as possible.

FoodJanbeck's receive at least 80% of their food ingredients from the region or from the immediate vicinity. In the FAIRcafé Uta Janbeck and her staff offer creative homemade cakes with fair trade coffee. From eggs to cereals, wine and other beverages to towels and bed linen, only fairly and ecologically produced goods come into the house at Janbeck * s. There is a "unverpackt" shop where guests can buy everything as they need it: e.g. 100g flour, 2 cucumbers, homemade pasta with homemade sauce, 3 eggs...

SocialAt Janbeck's, the concept of sustainability and fairness naturally extends to the employees. You are encouraged to deal with yourself sustainably and learn to adapt ergonomics and mindfulness to your own health. The team is happy and open to each other. There is ongoing external and internal training and further education such as baking cakes for vegans or allergy sufferers. Trainees and interns are immediately and intensively integrated into day-to-day operations and assigned responsible and creative tasks.

EnvironmentAwareness of social responsibility and the pursuit of holistic sustainability are the innermost driving forces of Janbeck * and in 2002 brought Uta and Stephan Janbeck to move from the big city to the northernmost corner of Germany. During the basic renovation work, a wastewater treatment plant was built at the same time in 2004 - of course with a lot of muscle power. With it, the drinking water used on the farm itself is reprocessed and wherever possible it is used as process water, e.g. for flushing the toilet and for washing. Janbeck * s can save more than 50% of valuable drinking water. Modern monitoring prevents energy waste and thus conserves resources. Janbeck * s also generates 170% of its own electricity requirements with a photovoltaic system and two combined heat and power plants - Janbecks is therefore not only climate-neutral, but even climate-positive. With part of it, the three farm-owned electric cars are filled up at Janbeck * s electric filling station, one of which is available to guests for excursions for a fee. For guests with their own electric car, "refueling" is free of charge, subject to availability. Janbeck * s is, among other things, a member of Park & Charge charging stations in the German Solar Mobility Association, which aims to create a nationwide network of charging stations to increase the range of electric cars. Janbeck * s has been awarded the “Viabono” certification for its responsible, modern, environmentally and climate-friendly tourism program. In 2016 Janbecks + Fairhaus was awarded the FAIRWÄRTS Prize. Janbeck * s is in its own way a unique place that wants to act as an inspiration for sustainable living. "We want to show that everyone can do something in their own small area."
