Pick and taste

Down on the farm

The region around Lisse is world-famous for its vibrant flower fields, but the Duin en Bollenstreek has much more to offer. Along the roads, you’ll find charming flower stalls selling fresh blooms straight from the fields or greenhouses. The area is also rich in delicious local produce.

Taste juicy apples and shiny red cherries from local orchards, enjoy organic meat from farm shops, or pick up fresh potatoes from traditional vending machines. This region is a true destination for lovers of fresh and authentic food.

Want to discover how these products are made? Visit a fruit farm, nursery, or local farm shop and experience the craftsmanship and passion of producers in the Duin en Bollenstreek.

 

  • Straight from the farm

    Just outside the village, in the Elsbroekerpolder, is the farm of the Zeestraten family. The farm shop is the right address for purchasing organic products, natural and regional produce and the tastiest meat from the Blaarkop cow.

  • Butter, cheese and eggs

    The Pennings farm shop is a great place to do some country shopping. Here you can sample the taste of home-made farm cheese, butter and eggs. You will also find an extensive range of traditional products from local farm shops.

  • Farm Shop Buitenhuis

    The most delicious products, fresh from the land, are hidden behind the boxes of Boer Buitenhuis' vending machine. With a wide range of potatoes, fresh free-range eggs, seasonal products and traditional chips, it is difficult to choose and definitely a reason to try everything.

Pick your own flowers

The Bulb Dune Region is well known for its flowers! And it is not only in spring that you can enjoy fields of colourful flowers. Various types of summer flowers bloom until well into the autumn. It's no coincidence that we love this region so much. 

In the various picking gardens in the area, you can go into the field armed with scissors to pick your own bouquet. A delightful outdoor activity in beautiful surroundings where you can completely unwind and go home with a beautiful bunch of flowers!

Besides the picking gardens, you will also find stalls along the side of the road selling flowers straight from the grower.

Local and regional produce

  • To the orchard

    Harvesting your own apples and pears is a great activity for the whole family. Go into the orchard or the picking garden together and pick the tastiest seasonal fruit, and of course browse around in the estate shops.
