Sow to Grow: from seed to a plant with traits

Sow to Grow in Enkhuizen covers plant breeding and seed technology. Interactive displays and the garden get you thinking about the plants we use for food and other purposes.

Plan your visit ↗

Tracing a familiar product

A vegetable or other plant has traits you can recognise. The museum invites you to explore how breeding relates to them. Start with an example you know and follow the steps and choices that are explained.

More uses than food

The role of plants in materials and other products also gets attention. The combination of collection, interactive elements and garden offers different ways of approaching the same subject. See what you can try for yourself and what needs extra explanation.

Choose activities separately

Workshops and children’s activities have their own programme. They are not automatically part of every museum visit. For a group or a visit outside the usual afternoons, get in touch so that a suitable arrangement can be made.

Before you go

Check workshops separately and arrange different times or group visits in advance.
