Hi <<First Name>>,
So far this year has been quite a ride and we're hoping you're staying happy and healthy. We are happy that some restrictions have eased up for now... so we can start to meet up again!

Lots of online and offline fun lined up: we're reopening, free online Dutch learning for all levels, and more! Read on to see what June holds in store....

 

We're OPEN!!!

Friday June 5th
City Central shop reopens! 

We have missed you! And you've missed us! We are so happy to be reopening the shop for the summer. From June we will be open on Fridays and Saturdays, 10am to 6pm. 

Come by to get your Groningen gifts, sign up for our events, swap a plant (see more below) or just say 'hi'.


#SamenSterk

We're thinking of you!!!

 

Still trying to find calm during corona times?

While we cannot yet host a Calm in the City event, our collaborators from De Stroom have curated an energizing and 
Calming Music Playlist for you!

From June 1st
MEGA TERRACE at the Suikerunie

On June 1st cafes and restaurants are allowed to open again. And with the warm weather, we have a tip for you: head to the Suikerunie. Situated a short bike ride away, on the edge of town, the Suikerunie will be transformed into a festival terrace every day from June 1st! The organiser is Stadslab and they have put together a mega terrace with street food, cold drinks and a relaxed festival atmosphere.

Please note: You do have to make a reservation beforehand! 

Find out more here.

A Stranger's Book
Cookbook Edition


We have now lots of strangers sharing books in Groningen and we thought this time we'd offer a special edition: COOKBOOKS!

Join our book exchange to gift to someone else and get a beautiful (hopefully delicious) read in return!

Signing up is super easy: send us an email with your address and we'll pass it on to someone else (without your name!) Then you'll get an address emailed to you and can take a walk or bike ride to drop off your book.
 
Fridays & Saturdays
Stekjes Exchange


'Stekjes' is the Dutch word for plant cutting... And since we're in the growth season we thought may be you'd like to enlarge your indoor jungle.

Starting in June, you can drop by our shop to choose from one of our available stekjes and drop one from your favorite plant!

Pannenkoeken, string of hearts, money tree, cooking herbs.... ALL are welcome.
