Make your own seed pot and learn what animals are allowed to eat.

During the Month of the Children's Farm, the animals receive extra attention. You will discover which vegetables are good for them. You will also learn what it is better not to feed them.

Sow something for the future

During this activity, you fill your own small seed pot. You take that pot home with you. There, you watch the vegetables grow at their leisure. That is how your mini-vegetable garden starts right at home.

Learn to feed with attention

Which animals like endive? How much can they eat? And which vegetables are less suitable? You will learn all of this during this workshop.

Come back later with your harvest

You may return after a few weeks. Then you will feed your own homegrown head of lettuce to the animals. The activity is on June 14, 2026, from 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM. For children aged 6 and up. Participation costs €2.50 per child. Register in advance.
