Landscape contribution: bench in front of ‘t Zwanenbroekje (Ooijpolder)

News, selection

Nice: we were able to give a bench as a gift to nature reserve ‘t Zwanenbroekje in the Ooijpolder. Thanks to our landscape contribution, a piggy bank that we fill with €1 for every pilgrim who registers for a starter pack.

Swan pants

You pass through the Zwanenbroekje just after the infamous and beloved pedestrian ferry at Persingen, one of the smallest places in the Netherlands. Roadmap 4. This part is often a bit muddy and therefore slippery. You can now relax on the bench. And enjoy the beautiful nature.

We used concrete feet for the bench. Seat and backrest are made of sustainable native wood, custom made for us by Michiel Besselink of Houtwaar.

Thanks to the volunteers of ‘t Zwanenbroekje who installed the bench!
