From Leipnitz, the tour starts along extensive orchards. Around 40,000 tons of pome, stone and berry fruit ripen here every year on 1,500 hectares of cultivated land. Modern storage, sorting and marketing technology in the cold storage complex in Dürrweitzschen, which can hold up to 25,000 tons, ensures that the fruit grown in Obstland is available all year round.
