Tulpenpluktuin De Monden in Drouwenermond is a pick-your-own flower farm specialising in tulips. The season runs from early April to mid-May, when the tulip fields are in bloom. Visitors cut their own stems, paying by the bunch rather than by weight. Scissors are provided, and you can bring your own containers if you prefer.
The farm is open daily during the season, typically from 10.00 to 17.00, though exact hours may vary with the weather. There is no need to book in advance. Parking is available on site, and the farm has a small shop selling cut flowers and bulbs.
What visitors say
Visitors pick tulips here, mostly in April and early May. The field is small—just five or six rows, each about 50 metres long—and some find it too limited, especially if they arrive late in the season when only one or two rows are left. You pay 50 cents per stem, either in cash or by QR code, and can choose your own colours and buds. Parking is tight, just a few spots along a cycle path and tree line, so you might drive past without noticing.
Children enjoy it, and the price is reasonable. A few mention the flowers are sturdy and well-grown, though early in the season you might only see a few blooms. If you come too late, there may be nothing left to pick.
