Next week you may have to wade through the muddy crust of salsify for the last time this season. In English-speaking countries, the salsify is also called the “oyster plant” because you can recognize a little bit of an oyster-like flavor in it. Cherish your last moments with winter vegetables because spring season is already bursting through the fresh ground!
At Hoeve Biesland, your help is needed to get the vegetable garden in tip-top shape. On Sunday, March 12, a vegetable garden day is planned. This day is in the theme of tillage. Raising paths, weeding the milled beds, crushing wood chips, planting, there is more than enough work. Handymen are also welcome for barn and painting work! Sign up through this link.
We hope you like this package again, please don’t forget to change your status by Sunday 8 p.m. if necessary!

Helping hands
Your weekly vegetable box is the result of the joint effort of many participants of the Lekkernassûh community. If you would like to help out on Wednesdays, please fill in the Market schedule. If you would like to participate in another form, why not check out our vacancies.
Bicycle parking
Are you picking up your package from the Gymzaal? Please don’t forget to only place your bicycles in the designated bicycle stands (across the street), to make sure we don’t inconvenience our neighbors. Thank you in advance!
Paying with Timebank hours
You can use Timebank hours to pay for your vegetable package, but also for example for cheese and products from the package-free shop. You can earn Timebank hours by helping out as a volunteer, for example at the market. Want to know more? Check it out here.
Package-free shop
The package free shop is open every Saturday from 11:00 until 13:30. Extended opening hours require more volunteers. Would you like to help? Sign up via this link. More info about the shop can be found here.
Don’t forget to change your status!
