Øens Have

What Øens Have does

Øens Have ApS is a privately held urban farm and event venue operating on Refshaleøen in Copenhagen, Denmark. Founded in 2014 as the sister farm to ØsterGro (Denmark's first urban rooftop farm), the company cultivates seasonal organic vegetables, herbs, fruits, and flowers using regenerative agriculture practices — including cover cropping, crop rotation, minimal soil disturbance, pollinator-friendly flowering, and mobile chicken coops supporting circular composting. The farm achieved organic certification in 2023 and is described as Scandinavia's largest urban farm.

The business operates a diversified revenue model across three integrated product lines. First, Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) subscriptions — a vegetable membership (200 kr/week for 24 weeks, June–November) currently at capacity with a waiting list, and a flower membership (200 kr/week for 20 weeks, June–October) with limited availability. Second, an event venue business centered on two handcrafted wooden yurts built by Lyse-Nætter (large yurt 100–120 capacity, small yurt 55 capacity), hosting private weddings, corporate meetings, Christmas dinners, product launches, and guided tours at price points ranging from 250 DKK to 1,100 DKK per person. Third, free educational programming for Copenhagen Municipality schools and daycares (grades 1–9, ages 2–6) funded through the Åben Skole initiative, plus a Michelin-star pop-up dinner collaboration with Restaurant Domestic. Distribution is entirely direct via on-farm pickup, email booking ([email protected]), and a Squarespace-powered web storefront.

The company employs 15 staff (with seasonal hiring for event venue work), serves primarily Copenhagen residents and tourists, and generates revenue through a hybrid of recurring subscriptions, transactional event bookings, and publicly funded educational contracts. No external investors, parent company, or funding rounds are disclosed.
