Greenhouse for growing bedding plants converted into vegetable garden greenhouse

"Actually, this is Westland in miniature"

Three years ago, Yvonne van Holsteijn (54) lost her husband, who passed away while working among the bedding plants. For a while, she tried to continue his work, but it proved too physically demanding due to her Multiple Sclerosis.

With the support of friends and family, she started a new venture: Indoor Kitchen Gardens.

"On Saturday mornings, whoever feels like it joins us for a coffee at 10 o'clock," she told Dutch newspaper AD. "It's really like a small version of the Westland community, everyone helps each other out, and I'm proud of that."

Westland is a Dutch region, internationally renowned for its greenhouses.
