Zehendermätteli: A place for enjoyment, diversity and social responsibility

Bern - May 2022
The Zehendi, a unique project that combines culinary delights with social responsibility, is located in the middle of the countryside on the outskirts of Bern. Nestled in an idyllic wooded landscape and just a few minutes' walk through the forest, Zehendermätteli offers an incomparable combination of gastronomy, gardening, floristry and ferry service.

A workplace for people in difficult circumstances
Zwhendi has set itself the task of giving people in difficult life situations - such as the long-term unemployed, drug addicts and alcoholics - a perspective. Through employment and support, the project offers a chance for a new start and integration, says Simon Tauber (CO Director)

Culinary delights at the highest level
Under the management of Ramon Schildknecht, who previously worked at BSC Young Boys and is known for his social nature, the gastronomy at Zehendermätteli sets new standards. The summer concept combines high-quality cuisine with the relaxed atmosphere of the forest. Guests can enjoy regional specialties on the large terrace under secluded trees or in the charming dining room - everything fresh from our own farm, from potatoes to homemade bread and organic delicacies.

A variety of rooms and events
The Zehendi not only offers a large terrace, but also an event greenhouse, tents and food trucks that can be used for a wide variety of occasions. Weddings are particularly popular here, be it a classic five-course meal or a relaxed hippie wedding on the flower meadow with homemade focaccia.

Farm store and self-service
If you would like to take the delicacies and flowers from Zehendermätteli home with you, you will find what you are looking for in the farm store. In addition to fresh farm produce, there are also bouquets of flowers and herbs. A self-service window is available for spontaneous visitors, while reservations can be made for service.

A place for everyone
Whether it's a family outing, a romantic dinner or relaxing time alone - the Zehendi is a place for everyone. The combination of nature, culinary enjoyment and social responsibility makes it a special gem in the Bern region.
