We are Aafke and Johannes, the founders of Friland.
who we are
As farmers, we believe in local entrepreneurship, in good and fairly grown food and in an active interaction between society and agriculture.
At Friland, we want to involve people in their food production and let them enjoy high-quality food, harvested in the morning, on their plate in the evening. We see Friland as an open and accessible place where growers and customers know each other and have a rich exchange. Friland is a place where you learn about how your food grows, a place where you can go to relax, meet, play, learn and help.
Good vegetables grow in healthy soil, full of life and rich in nutrients. That's why we grow without artificial fertilisers and pesticides and try to create a nutritious environment for flora and fauna. We nourish soil life, grow crops that fix nitrogen, improve soil structure and keep it covered as much as possible. This is how Friland will nourish both people and the environment.
We hope to grow vegetables for you too.
See you at Friland!
