Polders, vast meadows and water: typical examples of nature in Hollands Kroon. Functional nature, as the farmers and gardeners like to describe it. Nowhere is it as good for farmers as in Hollands Kroon. The proximity to the sea and lakes creates a temperate climate and moderate rainfall. There is a good reason why there are so many farmers here. Take our flower bulb region as an example. The North Holland Peninsula is the largest flower bulb region in the world. There is a good reason why Hollands Kroon is known as the agricultural capital of the Netherlands.
