The NEw Botanist
Experience Noordwijk Buiten
A small agricultural enterprise in Noordwijk by a 21st century botanist for other enthusiasts of all things botanical. We offer our customers a sensorial experience of local botanical history and global food trends.
Local History
Coming to Noordwijk Buiten and getting a tour of the greenhouses is like getting a tour in a botanical garden.
The idea of a botanical garden in Noordwijk isn't new. Han's business is inspired by the famous botanical garden of Gasper Fagel. He was a grand pensionary to Noordwijk in the 17th century. Left you see the place where his house and his famous botanical garden were situated. This site is on walking distance from the property of Han and Hannie. This photograph is made while standing next to our greenhouse, looking out over neighbouring fields.
Global Trends
Chances are you stumbled upon The New Botanist because you want to know how to grow your own edible plants. Urban gardening is a trend we highly encourage. Han's collection of plants and tours are aimed especially at catering to this curiousity. We sell and educate you about a variety of plants that take up little space and are cost-efficient, both with regards to financial expenses and time.
