Vink Fruitboerderij is a fruit farm specializing in artisanal fruit products, including jams and juices. A popular seasonal flavor is strawberry-rhubarb, available as both jam and fruit sauce. They pride themselves on authentic, artisanal methods and pure fruit flavors.
The farm features a “pluktuin” (picking garden) where visitors can pick their own fruit during harvest season, typically from late August to mid-October. While the specific types of fruit available for self-picking are not explicitly mentioned, the farm also offers older fruit trees for sale, allowing customers to plant mature trees in their own gardens.
Vink Fruitboerderij also has its own label called “Lekker Puur!” (Delicious Pure!) offering apple juice, pear juice, jams and dessert sauces directly to retailers. You can subscribe to their newsletter to stay informed about self-picking days and other news.
