Descripción de la organización:

Our organisation Weidse Buurt is part of the organic farm the Beekhoeve.
The “Beekhoeve”is a family run, owned and operated organic dairy farm. The family consists of Koos and Monique van der Laan. They have 4 children aging 9 ,12,15, 16
The farm is open to occasional volunteers and visitors. We have worked with WWOOFers (World- Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms, an international volunteer organisation).
The target group involves everyone with an interest in farm work, farm life, nature, the environment and especially organic farming.
The non-profit organisation is established in corporation with friends of the farm, this contains the activities that cannot be developed as a profit organisation. Activities that we want to set up are; a route where you can experience all the beautiful things of nature; together with the EVS’er we want to transform the ordinary walking routes into discovery routes where walkers will experience the beauty of nature; We want to make a point in the middle of the route where they can find a lot of information and where they can learn things about nature; the local plants, frogs, birds, etc. This point will also be the centre of educational activities.. From this central point we would like to organise group activities around different subjects, maintenance of the area and set out information points on the routes such as the kind of animals that are living in the canals/ditches, the typical birdlife, varieties of grass. .These are activities that the EVS’er can do. The EVS’er can also do promotion of these activities; create leaflets and other promotion materials. They can also organise special promotion days and work out themes for that.
Target groups will be families, older couples and children.
on the farm the farm they make organic raw milk products like cheese , butter , yoghurt and there is a shop to sell it.
