These routes take you to the best ‘pick-your-own’ gardens in North Brabant. You’ll walk through nature and be rewarded with fresh vegetables, apples and flowers – what could be better than that? You’ll visit the most beautiful green spots in North Brabant, starting and ending at the province's many pick-your-own gardens. It’s up to you whether you visit the garden before you set off or save it as a reward at the end of your walk. Many of the pick-your-own gardens also have terraces where you can sample home-made delicacies and shops full of artisan products.

These walks are suitable for children – young and old. Picking your own fresh vegetables, fruits and flowers is fun and also educational. You’ll learn more about where your food comes from and how it’s grown. It’s a great way to introduce children to nature and teach them about sustainability and nutrition.

You can pick the produce you like best and take with you to cook at home. Fresh fruit and vegetables from a pick-your-own garden are often tastier and healthier than supermarket produce.

Here are a few more tips to start these walks well prepared:

Check in advance whether the pick-your-own garden is open and whether you need to book. It’s a highly seasonal activity. Wear waterproof walking shoes and pack welly boots if it’s recently rained. If you can, bring your own baskets for harvesting to save on waste.

Have fun walking and picking your own!
