What visitors say

Visitors love the quiet, well-kept pick-your-own flower farm, where pre-made bouquets are available if you don’t want to pick yourself. The selection is large, with plenty of choice for creating your own arrangements. A small can of flowers costs €10, a larger one €17.50—most find it reasonable for the quality. You grab a pair of secateurs and a watering can from the hut near the cow shed, then head into the field to cut unsprayed blooms. The owner often walks around, happy to chat about the flowers or the farm, which uses cow manure from the adjacent barn to grow potatoes and pumpkins. A few wish there were signs with flower names or self-service tea and coffee in the hut, as some other farms offer. The covered greenhouse is a nice spot to sit, though there’s no seating or refreshments provided.
