Flower Picking Garden De Langendam
This flower picking garden located in Waspik, exists since 2005. The flowers are grown here themselves in the nursery, so there are different types of flowers in the picking garden. Because they work without pesticides and remove the weeds by hand, everything grows naturally. This ensures not only strong and healthy flowers, but also a picking garden where you can walk around with peace of mind, even with children. The website has tips and rules for bringing children.
The picking garden usually opens at the end of June, they share the exact date each year through their website and social media channels. During opening hours you can just walk in, no reservations are necessary. Upon arrival, you'll be loaned a bucket with a layer of water to keep the flowers fresh while you're at it. Preferably bring your own pliers or knife, otherwise they are available to borrow. In advance, staff or volunteers will share a brief instruction. Then walk through a beech hedge and the woods to the picking garden. Please note that picking is not allowed behind a wire or in a private garden.
Do you only want to take hobby photos in the picking garden? Then they ask a contribution of €5. If you pick a bucket of flowers or take something on the terrace, then you don't have to pay this contribution for taking hobby photos. They also have workshops and share picking tips, be sure to check out the website!
