One of the most charming things about life in Switzerland is the honor system used at self-service farms all over the country. Drive down any country road and you’ll see signs for self-service farm stands everywhere.

We’ve been discovering (and supporting) the self-service system all over our Canton. You can find everything from eggs and poultry to milk, cheese, and vegetables. Our neighbors, who are vignerons, have the most gorgeous grapes and squash in the fall. You can pay with cash or Twint (an app that connects to your bank account). There’s usually a box with cash where you can make your own change.
