Roelofs tree nursery – fully dedicated to quality<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Our tree nursery grows vigorous apple trees, pear trees and fruit-tree rootstocks for the fruit-growing industry at home and abroad. The majority of our plants are dispatched to growers in the Benelux, Germany, France, the UK, Scandinavia, Italy and Poland. The demand for fruit trees and rootstocks beyond the EU is also growing. Our rootstocks are partly used for the cultivation of our own fruit trees.<\/p>\n

Family-owned business<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Our family-owned business dates back to 1960, when Wim Roelofs learned how fruit trees \u00a0were grown at a fruit-growing business. In 1968, together with his wife Riet, he set up his own fruit-tree nursery in the Noordoostpolder. Our business has been situated in Zeewolde since 1983. The business comprises approximately 25 \u00a0hectares of nursery beds, 12 hectares of 2-year old rootstocks, 70 hectares of apple trees and 45 of pear trees.<\/p>\n

Our management team for cultivation and sales oversee a group of 20 permanent employees. These are mostly specialists in soil, cultivation, fertilizer application, fertigation, crop protection, quality selections of plants, cooling, logistics and sales. They work closely together to nurture vigorous and healthy varieties, assisted during the high season by about 70 seasonal workers.<\/p>\n

Come and have a look<\/strong><\/h3>\n

We highly appreciate it when customers come and have a look for themselves at the results of how their trees are growing; it also means we can take individual requirements into account during the cultivation and grading process.<\/p>\n
