Judith Rakers: Farming Bliss by the Sea on Rügen Island
Coastal Farm Found on Rügen Boasts Close Proximity to the Sea - Sea-adjacent Agricultural Venture on Rügen Island Expands Borders
Judith Rakers (49), the ex-"Tagesschau" announcer, melodiously attests to her newfound love for her farm on Rügen Island, a Baltic Sea gem that's been her favorite isle for eons! The island enchants her with its magnesium sandy shores and emerald green forests, making it hard to leave even a part of her heart in Hamburg.
For years, Rakers has frequented Rügen at least twice annually, and her friends there feel akin to kin! The island spirals a sense of belonging, like a second home—an enchanting haven where she's crafting a sustainable, seaside utopia for her family of two cats, two noble steeds, and vibrant band of ten chickens. Savoring the salty ocean breeze, she perambulates only ten scintillating minutes to the shoreline!
"Change is life's delight, an 'old' leaves room for the 'new'," muses Rakers as she relinquishes her beloved Hamburg abode. Embracing evolution, she tastes the thrill of embarking on a landmark chapter of her life!

Rakers, a nature enthusiast, inaugurated her idyllic island life in April, sharing tantalizing glimpses of her burgeoning homestead on Instagram. In the captivating photos, she flaunts her dual glasshouse sanctuaries amidst bountiful, raised garden beds, nestled in verdant woodland. In the interim, Rakers has divulged snippets of her expansive kitchen as construction machinery hummed through her new paradise.
The country living devotee, previously from Hamburg's northern outskirts, is a seasoned farming aficionado. She boasts a website chock-full of gardening tools, a newsletter, and several books honing in on self-sufficiency, cuisine, and country living.

I'm not going to be able to make it to my old home in Hamburg, as I've embarked on a new lifestyle on Rügen Island, my favorite Baltic Sea island. Despite the allure of Hamburg's shores, my new home and garden in Rügen, complete with glasshouse sanctuaries, raised garden beds, and a growing band of animals, has become my utopia.
