"We are proud growers of bell peppers and do so with great attention to everything around us. I like the fact that we grow a product that is incredibly healthy. A bell pepper is packed with vitamin C! And it's a super versatile vegetable. Both in colour and in dishes you can vary endlessly. My favourite? That's bell pepper soup!"
Kees van Veen
AgroCare
"As a grower, you have to deal with growing plants, the climate in the greenhouse, but also people. I like to walk through the greenhouse to see how the crop is doing. We grow about 12 different kinds of tomatoes, from cherry to vine tomatoes. For me personally, a tomato doesn't have to be very sweet. How do I like to eat them? In the greenhouse, just right out of the mouth!"
Willy van Bussel
Snack Products
"Our snack cucumbers have much more bite and flavour than a regular cucumber. It's an ideal snack. Did you know that our snack cucumbers also have no stalk? So you can eat them whole and keep no waste. Children love them too. At school, a birthday or while playing: they just snack on the cucumbers in between."
Wouter van den Bosch
Bosch Kwekerij
"We cultivate as sustainably as possible and we contribute to feed the world. We produce a lot of healthy food. Yes, that is a very nice role in society that we get to fulfill. Our green bell pepper has a distinct flavor of its own. I prefer to eat it grilled from the barbecue. Or in a Greek salad with feta and tomato. Delicious!"
