Community Farmer Picking Garden Trial Day
Want to experience helping out in the fields and picking regenerative vegetables? Sign up for the Community Farmer - Picking Garden Trial Day!
At our Phood Farm Picking Garden, we grow hyper-local vegetables in the heart of Eindhoven, on the Rielse Erven. Together with a diverse group of like-minded co-farmers of all ages and backgrounds, we work regeneratively according to permaculture principles.
Our enthusiastic farmleads Aafke and Pascale share their knowledge in a hands-on way and let you experience the joy of working with nature. During your tasting day you will pick your own vegetables, herbs, (edible) flowers and fruits in our Picking Garden!
Our picking garden is 100% pesticide-free, naturally and regeneratively grown, with care for both people and nature
Sign up for a Meeboerday!
Choose the day and time you want to help and indicate this at checkout.
After purchase, you will receive an email with more information.
The meeboerdays are on Thursday, Friday and Saturday from 09:30 to 14:00.
Together with Aafke, Pascale and other Community Farmers you will explore the Phood Farm Picking Garden and learn about permaculture.
Pick your own vegetables and herbs.
Aafke and Pascale explain between 12:00 and 12:30 about what you can harvest and how to do it.
Then you get to pick your own vegetables, herbs, edible flowers and fruits!
The harvest varies with the seasons, so in summer there is more to pick than in winter.
Discounts in the Phood Farm Shop.
During your tasting day, you will receive 25% off indoor farm products in the Phood Farm Shop, such as mushrooms, microgreens, kombucha and oils.
- 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.
- 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.
For €10, enjoy a morning of gardening fun and pick that week’s seasonal harvest for yourself, during the Community Farmer – Picking Garden Trial Day.
The tasting day is for 1 person.
Will you be gardening and picking with more than one person?
Then order a tasting day for two or more people.
Includes:
- Professional meeboer guidance.
- One serving of that week’s (self-)picked vegetables, herbs, (edible) flowers, and fruits.
- 25% off all products in the Phood Farm Shop featuring mushrooms, microgreens, kombucha, broth, oils etc.
Come for a trial day and experience the benefits of freshly harvested produce and active involvement in our picking garden!
After your order you will be sent an email with more information about the day itself.

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!
