For almost 130 years, the Schamberger family has supplied Munich residents with vegetables, lettuces and herbs. But now they have announced to close down the business on Feldmochinger Straße. On a part of the company site, 53 rental apartments are to be built, the Süddeutsche Zeitung reports.

The district is slowly getting out of the nurseries. For almost 130 years, the Schamberger vegetable farm in the middle of Moosach has been providing Munich residents with vegetables, lettuces, young plants and herbs. But the future of the fourth-generation family business is limited; a fifth generation has not stepped up to manage the nursery. Elisabeth and Anton Schamberger, who have been managing the long-established traditional business on Feldmochinger Straße 12 since 1984, have decided to dissolve it and to build apartments on the site. The main reasons for this are related to age, health and a lack of succession, Anton Schamberger says.
