Wormer and Jisperveld
The Poelboerderij has been committed to preserving this beautiful natural environment for many years .
About ten kilometers north of Amsterdam lies the nature reserve:
Wormer- en Jisperveld. This former lowland peat bog is home to a
unique array of flora and fauna. Since the founding of the De Poelboerderij Foundation
in 1988, the De Poelboerderij Visitor Center has served as the gateway

you can experience the
North Holland landscape in a unique way.

Photo Gallery
The peat meadow park, christened “De Trickel,” was purchased from the municipality of Wormerland for one guilder. The park was subsequently transferred to Natuurmonumenten to ensure its long-term management and operation. The park was intended to become a miniature replica of the Wormer and Jisperveld, featuring small islands and various patches of grassland and reed beds. A nature reserve where various species of meadow birds would feel at home and where the flora would also be abundantly present.
