Do you have any questions or feedback?
Then get in touch with us here!
We live in a time where just about anything is possible. That’s wonderful, of course, but also challenging! Traditionally, we lived according to certain values and ‘the’ way of life was more or less dictated. Now we are free to choose. To decide for ourselves how we shape our lives and to answer important life questions. Who am I? How do I give meaning to life? De Kwekerij offers a space for this.

Frequently asked questions
Is participating in a blooming session free?
Yes, always. We want everyone to be able to participate. However, we do appreciate donations (one-time or monthly) so we can keep our programs accessible.
Who are the blooming sessions intended for?
Our blooming sessions are specially developed for young adults aged 18–35. Occasionally we organize gatherings for all ages; this is always clearly indicated.
Do I need to sign up for a blooming session?
Yes, signing up is helpful. That way we know how many people to expect. You can sign up via the event page.
Should I come alone, or can I bring someone?
You’re definitely welcome to bring someone along. Prefer to come alone? No problem. We can also pair you up with another participant so you can join together. You can indicate this when you sign up.
Who are your programs aimed at?
- Blooming sessions & blooming classes → young adults (18–35)
- Generation dinner → young people (up to 35) and seniors (60+)
- Language classes → newcomers
- Community events → a few times a year for everyone
I fall just outside the target group (younger than 18 or older than 35). Can I still participate?
Sometimes! Send us an email and we’ll see what fits. For some gatherings, everyone is welcome anyway. Check the calendar or contact us.
Where do the activities take place?
In Amsterdam, our blooming sessions take place in the greenhouse in the Diaconie building. The address is Nieuwe Herengracht 18. In Utrecht, we organize blooming sessions in the Library at Neude. The location is always mentioned with the event.
Can I contribute to De Kwekerij?
We’d love that! You can do so with a donation or by becoming a volunteer. Get in touch by sending an email to info@dekwekerij.org, and we’ll look together at what suits you.
What makes De Kwekerij unique?
With us, growth is always connected to others. Self-knowledge and learning together go hand in hand. We believe that personal blooming only truly gains meaning when it also contributes to the world around you.
What if I have no experience with self-development or reflection?
No problem at all. Everyone starts somewhere. Our programs are accessible, open, and you’re always welcome to join in.
Can my organization or company also collaborate with De Kwekerij?
