Pluktuin ‘Uit de tuin van de buren’ is a small-scale flower nursery and picking garden located on the grounds of Hoeve Klein Mariëndaal, at the edge of Arnhem. Operated by Moniek de Bakker, who also runs a garden design studio, this picking garden cultivates flowers without pesticides or artificial fertilizers, allowing them to grow and bloom in harmony with the seasons.
The garden covers approximately 1000 square meters and features 60 flower beds. These beds contain a diverse array of perennial plants, flower bulbs, ornamental grasses, and a vibrant selection of annuals that flourish during the summer months.
Visitors are welcome to self-pick flowers from mid-May through October. The picking garden’s operating hours are Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 10:00 to 17:00, and on the 2nd and 4th Saturday of each month from 09:30 to 12:30. Guests can pay per stem for their self-picked bouquets, or they can opt for a multi-visit self-picking card or a subscription for pre-arranged bouquets.
The garden is situated in a car-free zone, with convenient parking available within walking distance on Heijenoordseweg. It is easily accessible by bicycle or on foot, providing a tranquil experience adjacent to the farm’s vegetable garden and close to a local café.
