Amsterdam Green! Festival (100% Pesticide-Free!)
Why are pesticide-free and native plants so important for biodiversity? And where in Amsterdam can you buy them? These questions and more will be answered on Sunday, 26 May, during the free Amsterdam Green! Festival, from 11:00 to 18:00 at the city nursery Noorderbloemen. Expect an organic (plant) market, workshops & lectures from green experts, music, and a pop-up café.
