Review - Farmers Market

Published on
February 1, 2019

On Tuesday the 15th of January, local farmers came to the Wageningen campus to talk about farming and sell their produce. OtherWise and Boerengroep organised this event to make connections between the WUR and local farmers and entrepreneurs. We saw many enthousiastic students and enthousiastic farmers telling about their ways of producing.

We had the joy to meet with:
- Ommuurde tuin
- Rijnroosters
- WEP & Tuinderij de Stroom
- Agrarische Natuurvereniging het Binnenveld
- Eurijn
- Stichting Philadelphia
- Otto Vloedgraven Fruit
- Ivo's Bread

Also students shared their Green New Year Resolutions at our Knowledge Fair stand. We saw many nice resolutions, including eating more locally grown foods, persuing more sustainable practices at the WUR and being on time for class ;).
