We are a biologic dynamic smallfruit farm in the middle of the Netherlands. We grow different kinds of fruits: raspberries, blackberries, red currends and gooseberries. I took over this farm januari 2021 and my mission to make the farm bloom again, to create a little peace of earth where plants, animals and people live and work together happily and produce healthy food.
The farm is located in the Betuwe, this is the fruit area of the Netherlands, but there are not many other organic farms. Next to the farm there is the river the Neder-Rijn. Its very nice to walk there and you can also swim in the little bays and there is much more beautiful nature to discover around the farm.
In the summer there are several people working and living here (wwoofers, trainee's etc) and its a happy community place where we work and live together. After work the volunteers also often do things together like exploring the surroundings by bike and I like to organise campfire and game evenings for everyone.
Organic methods: No chemicals and a lot of love :)
Certifications: skal (organic) and demeter (dynamic) certified
Type of work:
There is a lot of different tasks to do at the farm! In the summer we are mostly picking the fruits, sometimes we weed or do other tasks in between of the picking.
In the spring and autumn there are other tasks: building, weeding, planting, seeding, pruning etc.
