Boerderij Landzicht in Strijen is a certified organic farm where visitors can pick their own seasonal flowers. The farm grows a variety of annual, pesticide-free flowers, including dahlias, in a dedicated picking garden. The flowers are available from late summer through autumn, with specific opening dates announced on the farm’s website and social media.

You pay for flowers by the stem, with prices varying depending on the type. Scissors are provided, or you can bring your own.

The farm is part of a larger organic operation that has been growing vegetables, fruit, potatoes, and spelt since 1988.

The farm also has a small shop selling its own produce, including spelt pasta made from grain grown on-site.

Boerderij Landzicht is accessible for wheelchair users, with designated parking and an accessible entrance. The farm is open by appointment or during advertised events, and visitors are advised to check the latest updates before visiting.
