U-pick farm Pluktuin ‘Uit de tuin van de buren’

Tuin van de buren is a garden design studio based in Arnhem, Netherlands, which also operates a small-scale flower nursery and pick-your-own garden called ‘Uit de tuin van de buren’. Located on the grounds of Hoeve Klein Mariëndaal at Diependalseweg 4, the pick-your-own garden spans approximately 1,000 square meters and features 60 flower beds filled with perennials, flower bulbs, ornamental grasses, and annuals. The flowers are grown without synthetic fertilizers or pesticides, following the natural rhythm of the seasons.

Visitors can self-pick a bouquet of flowers directly from the garden. The pick-your-own season is planned to open around mid-May 2026. During the season, the garden is open for self-picking on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 10:00 to 17:00, as well as on the second and fourth Saturday of each month from 09:30 to 12:30. Appointments can also be made for other times. The garden is located in a car-free area; parking is available nearby on Heijenoordseweg, and the site is accessible on foot or by bicycle.
