To look around. To actually see what has grown.This is a day for that. Harvest & Flower is a one-day summer retreat at Little Dutch Farm — an invitation to step out of the to-do list and into the season. To take your summer break without leaving the country. To discover that the most nourishing thing you can do right now might simply be to lie on the grass\, watch the clouds move\, and let yourself arrive. We will spend the morning in gentle reflection — guided by nature coaching and the wisdom of the season. What did you plant in the spring? What has come into flower? And what is still waiting\, maybe in a different season altogether?Not everything grows at the same rate. And not everything needs to. In the afternoon\, we welcome our special guest Monique\, who will guide us through the art of harvesting edible flowers from the garden. Together\, we’ll make a beautiful summer cheesecake and hand-crafted flower butters — decorated with the colours of the season. It is a practice in slowness and sensory joy. In the kind of beauty that is simply there\, if you are present enough to see it. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Benefits Nature Retreat\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Details \n \n \n \n \n \n Pricing \n \n \n \n \n Price for Day Retreat is \n \n \n \n \n€139\,00 \n \n \n \n incl.

Being outdoors\, embracing and accepting the weather\, greatly enhanced and strengthened the coaching process. The hosting and catering facilitation were more than complete\, and I felt extremely welcome. Personally\, I felt and received all the space I needed for my own process. I concluded this retreat with a sense of satisfaction and contentment. \n \n \n Karin \n \n \n \n \n \n \n What a wonderful day\, free from the hustle and bustle of normal life.. A chance to truly breath and reflect on myself. We so often rush through life and we put ourselves last. A day on The Little Dutch Farm was like honey for the soul. Kim was amazing\, friendly and kind and passionate about her desire to share the gifts that nature has to offer with others. The food was delicious and the effort that Kim loving puts into every detail of her workshop is evidence of the passion Kim has for her retreats. I felt that I left the Farm calmer and with positive memories and constructive thoughts to take into my everyday life. Thank you \n \n \n Mandy \n \n \n \n \n \n \n A perfect day in the outdoors not too far from Amsterdam. Kim is a very warm and welcoming lady that makes you feel pampered and at ease. You can totally switch off from your daily routine\, disconnect from technology\, everything is taken care of. One can enjoy the Dutch nature\, delicious home cooked food with fresh ingredients from the kitchen garden.

Her love of edible plants began in her grandmother’s garden\, where she picked berries and cherries for home-baked vlaai and pancakes. While working on a care farm\, she became fascinated by medicinal plants — and followed that thread into training in herbal medicine\, aromatherapy\, and nature coaching. She turned her passion into her work: foraging and growing for restaurants\, and deepening her knowledge through training in tea and food pairing\, botanicals\, and cheese. She worked at Parc Broekhuizen and completed a placement with master herbalist Wim Maes\, supplying herbs and edible flowers to Michelin-starred restaurants. In 2021\, Monique founded Natuuropleiding to make nature education more accessible and hands-on. She brings together her knowledge of plants\, wild foraging\, and cooking to help people discover nature in a way that is joyful\, practical\, and deeply rooted in the senses. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Additional information \n \n \n \n Retreats will go ahead in all weather conditions except for weather warnings yellow\, orange or red.
