Summary
At the Woldhuis estate, employees maintain the organic vegetable garden and orchard. We are looking for a skilled and cooperative coordinator!Detailed description
The work at Campus Woudhuis is done as much as possible by people with a work disability and students in secondary special education. Under the expert guidance of professionals, volunteers and interns. We are always looking for the right mix of people. Discovering and using everyone's qualities is central.
We offer fun and varied work and contact with great people in a beautiful location in Apeldoorn on the edge of the Woudhuizen district. Do you have a lot of experience with working in a vegetable garden? Are you not afraid to work yourself and get your hands dirty? Do you think it would be fun to manage the vegetable garden team and think along in a cultivation plan? Then come work at Campus Woudhuis!
What kind of vegetable garden is it?
The garden is in use for 3 seasons in 2021. Since 2016 there has been an orchard.
The soil is wet sand with organic matter and probably loam in places. A layer of soil that is disturbing does not allow water to pass through, which means that a lot of water remains on the soil, especially in winter. The garden is surrounded by tall trees, which means that there is more or less shade in all places. By working on ridges, it is possible to grow strawberries, blackberries, potatoes, beans, Swiss chard, courgettes and pumpkins. More varieties should be possible, but that simply has to be tried.
We have a dream to grow for a nearby restaurant. The garden has a lot of potential!
Time Spent
You can come one to five days a week and work a few hours. One or more fixed days are best, because our employees like clarity and the supervisors know who they can count on.
