This self-picking farm, located at Oudelandsedijk 900 in Dirksland, offers visitors the opportunity to harvest their own flowers and produce. Operated by Julian and Wendy under the name Agroflower, the farm is dedicated to fair, sustainable, and high-quality agriculture, employing regenerative practices to ensure biodiversity and avoid chemical pesticides.
Visitors can self-pick a diverse range of flowers, including approximately 5000 Dahlias in 40 varieties, Gladioli, various summer flowers, and wild flowers. Additionally, pumpkins and ornamental fruit are available for picking. The most vibrant picking season typically runs from August to October, with the farm open five days a week, Tuesday through Saturday, from 10:00 to 16:30.
Beyond the self-picking experience, the farm hosts engaging Christmas workshops where participants can create their own wreaths, arrangements, or swags. Materials are provided, though guests are welcome to bring personal ornaments, candles, or lights to personalize their creations. These workshops cost 35 euros per person and include coffee and treats. The farm also runs educational programs and excursions for both schools and individuals, promoting sustainable agricultural practices and featuring attractions like a bee castle.
Entrance and parking are free, and flowers are priced per 15 stems for a bouquet. Facilities include a toilet, and a small sandpit, trampoline, swing, and playhouse are available for children’s enjoyment (used at their own risk). As the paths are natural grass, old shoes or wellington boots are recommended, especially after rain. For inquiries, Wendy can be reached via phone or WhatsApp at 0652421620.
