X T R A K R A G T in Kraggenburg is a pick-your-own flower farm with a public pluktuin open from July to the end of October. The field grows seasonal cut flowers—dahlias, annuals and perennials—alongside small fruit such as currants and gooseberries. Visitors pick their own bouquets and pay by the stem or bunch; the farm provides scissors and buckets. Pre-ordered plukboeketten can also be collected.
The pluktuin is part of a working care farm that offers day activities, so the setting is a working agricultural site rather than a dedicated visitor attraction. The farm is wheelchair-accessible, with a paved parking area and step-free entrance. A small on-site café, Zuidpunt T121, serves coffee, homemade cakes and light lunches on Monday and Thursday afternoons from April until the autumn half-term. The café also sells farm-made jams, seeds and seasonal produce from a self-service cabinet.
During the season the pluktuin is open every day; picking sessions run on Mondays and Thursdays from 08.45 to 14.45. The farm occasionally hosts evening plukavonden and workshops—check the website for dates. In summer, ice cream is sold from a roadside kiosk at lunchtime. The farm organises several annual events, including a kofferbakmarkt and a small festival, where visitors can help with set-up or staff the coffee stall.
Parking is free; dogs are welcome on leads. The farm is signposted from the Zwartemeerweg, five minutes’ drive from the centre of Kraggenburg.
What visitors say
Leerwerkboerderij Xtrakragt in Kraggenburg is small-scale and set in a quiet, green area. The atmosphere is calm and personal, with plenty of space and a healthy environment. A work supervisor gives stage runners peace and confidence, making it a good place for hands-on experience rather than just picking produce. The focus is on useful tasks and guidance, not just harvesting.
