Asparagus farm restaurant in the Rieben district of Beelitz, named for a nearby stork's nest, serving a full menu of Beelitzer Spargel dishes during the harvest season alongside a farm shop.
Spargelhof am Storchennest sits in Rieben, a small village in the Beelitz asparagus-growing district named for a stork's nest that has long been a feature of the local landscape. The farm restaurant publishes its full Spargelgerichte (asparagus dishes) menu each season, covering the traditional range of preparations built around Beelitzer Spargel: boiled white asparagus with hollandaise or melted butter, served alongside ham, potatoes, or schnitzel. Being located in Rieben rather than central Beelitz, it draws a slightly more local, less tourist-heavy crowd than some of the region's better-known Spargelhöfe, though weekends in May still bring steady visitor traffic. Reaching it without a car requires cycling or a taxi from Beelitz town, since public transport to the outlying villages is limited.
