Co-Farming: Become a Community Farmer and co-farm about 6 hours a month in the fields! Together with our farmleads Aafke and Pascale you will learn all about growing according to permaculture principles. You can choose what day and time you want to help. The co-farming days are Thursday, Friday and Saturday from 09:30 to 14:00.

(Self) Picking Garden: On the meeboerdays, between 12:00 and 12:30, Aafke and Pascale explain the day’s harvest and how to pick it. Then it’s your turn to pick vegetables, herbs, (edible) flowers and fruits. When you have mastered the technique, you can also pick independently, separate from the co-farm days, with the help of a weekly online video.

Harvesting follows the natural rhythm of the seasons. In summer, of course, the harvest will be more bountiful than in late winter or early spring. However, there will be work on the land every week, even in winter, and there will be something to harvest almost every week. With an annual subscription, you are going to experience the unique beauty of all seasons.

Online Community Platform: As a Community Farmer, you also get access to our online community platform. Here you can share news, events, garden knowledge, recipes and more. Every Tuesday we share a video with information about what’s up for picking that week.

Phood Farm Shop Voucher and Discount: The Community Farmer – Subscription includes a €100 voucher for the Phood Farm Shop and you get 25% on indoor farm products throughout the year. These include products such as mushrooms, microgreens, kombucha. oils etc.

• Picking/harvesting yourself: By harvesting your own vegetables, fruits, flowers and herbs, you will experience a new connection with your food. Weekly videos are created showing you how to harvest each vegetable and where to find them. In addition, a weekly list is shared of available vegetables, including quantities and weights.

• Freedom and flexibility: Self-harvesting becomes more flexible so that you can harvest when it suits you. In the initial phase, you can help out under supervision on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays between 09:30 – 14:00 and then self-harvest. Once you have more experience and knowledge, you are free to self-harvest from Tuesday to Saturday.

• Freshness guaranteed: You harvest your vegetables straight from the land, right when you need them. You can’t get any fresher!

• Connected to nature: You actively experience the seasons. From the first spring flowers to the harvest of autumn, you see what grows and what doesn’t during the year.

• A strong community: By working with like-minded people in the picking garden, we strengthen social bonds and work together to create a healthy, local food supply. Together, we make the harvest richer and the experience more meaningful.

In our Indoor Phood Farm and Phood Farm Picking Garden we work with young people who are distanced from the labor market. For this we work together with Futuris and Unitio and have our own Phood Care program where we focus on ‘inner gardening’ (your personal growth at your pace).

With your participation, you automatically contribute to more growth and apprenticeships!
