Wilde Weide is a biological flower nursery and self-picking garden located in Kamerik (Woerden), set within the grounds of BoerBert, a biological dairy farm. This 1500 m² garden operates with an official SKAL bio-certification, cultivating flowers without the use of pesticides, toxins, or artificial fertilizers, and utilizing biological bulbs and seeds to promote biodiversity.
Visitors can enjoy self-picking a diverse range of sustainably grown flowers. The season typically begins with vibrant tulips and elegant ornamental alliums, continuing through summer and into October with a colorful variety of dahlias, alongside other annual and perennial blooms.
In addition to self-picking, Wilde Weide offers ready-made biological bouquets, large flower buckets (with 50, 75, or 100 stems), and flower subscriptions for those who prefer not to pick themselves. The garden also plans to host interactive workshops on bouquet making and starting a picking garden, providing educational experiences for both children and adults. Florists are welcome to source flowers directly from the garden.
The garden operates seasonally, closing for winter and reopening in the spring (with spring 2026 noted for its next reopening). During its open season, self-picking is available Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM, and on Saturdays from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM. Payment for picked flowers can be made via QR codes, allowing for visits even when staff are not present. The garden is closed on Sundays, and dogs are not permitted on the BoerBert premises.
What visitors say
Even towards the end of the picking season in late September, visitors will find a plentiful selection of flowers still available. The unique method of cutting stems at 40cm ensures a generous yield, often with multiple blooms per stem, making it a delightful experience to personally assemble a beautiful bouquet. For added convenience, payment is easily handled via QR code, and practical amenities like newspapers and tape are provided in the greenhouse for transporting your freshly picked flowers. Beyond the floral offerings, the location also presents opportunities for spotting various animals.
