The registration period has been brought forward compared with previous years. This means that the delivery of vegetables and fruit can begin immediately after the summer holidays. Deliveries will run from 5 September 2022 through 10 February 2023. After that, schools can continue encouraging the consumption of fruit and vegetables at school themselves. At www.wijkiezengroenteenfruit.nu, you will find a step-by-step plan to help you get started.
