About Berkelbloem
A Tradition Rooted in Passion
In the heart of Norfolk County, Ontario, our family farm has transitioned into its third generation of passionate green thumbs. Stemming from our parent company Berkel Greenhouses Inc., the idea of Berkelbloem came to life and thus we were able to expand our operations from greenhouse vegetables into the greenhouse floral market.
A Dutch Heritage Blossoming in Ontario
With the word "Bloem" meaning "flower" in Dutch, our identity proudly reflects our Dutch heritage. We cherish our bond with the place where it all began more than a century ago. Grown under glass has been a tradition carried on by the Berkel family since the early 1900s. From the town of Berkel in South Holland, to the heart of Norfolk County Ontario, growing has followed closely.
More Than Just Greenhouses
However, we are more than just greenhouse growers. Berkelbloem is a testament to the vast world of floriculture. Yes, our greenhouse features an array of wonderful tropical plants that can bring parts of the world unseen directly to your doorstep. But our farm also offers its own unique outdoor wonder as well. Tulips. 500,000 tulips. Planted with the opportunity to be picked, pictured, and poured over in the spring, come join us for a Pick Your Own Tulip Experience in the spring of 2024. Buy a tropical before you head home!
