Nice proceeds from plant sales for the toddler pool Zwembad de Weid
Great demand for strawberry plants from the ABZ Seeds spring trials.
Saturday morning, May 4, it was time again for the annual plant sale of ABZ Seeds in Andijk. The proceeds were intended for the paddling pool of Zwembad De Weid in Andijk.
At 10 o'clock there was already a line of plant buyers waiting in the sun, in front of the gate. After the gate was opened, they could buy beautiful strawberry plants, some of which even had red fruits already. The plants came from the breeding company's spring trials and were offered for a nice price to the public.
Whether it was the nice weather or the great socks-promotion of De Weid (if you spent €20 or more you received a pair of socks as a gift), the proceeds were very nice: €1,686 could ultimately be written on the check.
"It was a fun day for all of us and we are happy with this proceeds. It is a nice contribution for the toddler pool at Zwembad De Weid. It will be completely retiled. I heard that this is a big and expensive job, but they are already working on it," says Ilona Smith of ABZ Seeds.
