De Langendam in Waspik is a pick-your-own flower farm with a large cutting garden and a year-round dried-flower shop. From early July to early October, visitors can pick their own fresh flowers from over 150 varieties, including cosmos, zinnias, sunflowers, dahlias, rudbeckia, ageratum and achillea.

Bring your own secateurs or borrow a pair. A full bucket, roughly two bouquets, costs €20; smaller or larger bunches are priced accordingly at the till. Children under 12 can pick in a special section marked with flags, under adult supervision. The farm also sells pre-picked buckets of flowers by order.
