Sustainability is becoming increasingly important in both cultivation and purchasing. More and more buyers are demanding that growers who supply plants be certified. In addition, certification can also be useful for your own business.

On Friday 10 October, a meeting on sustainability certification will be held at Boot & Dart Boomkwekerijen bv in Boskoop.
During the afternoon, various parties will explain why certification is important and how to go about it.
You will also have the opportunity to ask any questions you may have on this subject and to exchange experiences with colleagues during the closing networking drinks reception.

📅 = Friday 10 October

📍 = location Boot & Dart Boomkwekerijen, Halve Raak 7 in Boskoop

🕒 = start 13:30 (doors open from 13:15)
