This is what spring tastes like
The first asparagus are harvested, fruit trees are in bloom and everywhere people are working the land. Cycle past the fields and you can smell the fresh earth. Farmers start early in the morning, so you and I can enjoy fresh regional products again.
This is where it all begins. In the soil, with people who understand the land. You can taste that pride on your plate. Take a seat at a local restaurant or stop by a farm shop. Here things happen without fuss. Just honest, just good. Let yourself be surprised by what this land has to offer.
A barn full of new life
On a lightly cloudy spring day I walk onto the yard of Beatrixhoeve, one of the locations of De Wassum. Inside the barn it is bustling: around 800 lambs are born here this spring. The first ones are already skipping around outside in the meadow, while the newborn multiples stay inside a little longer.
