Interested? Here’s how we work together

Step 1. There’s interest!

Like any new beginning, it all starts with interest. Whether it’s coming from you, the farmer, or from us, FarmCamps – there’s interest in possibly starting a FarmCamps site on your farm. But as the saying goes, better the devil you know...? That’s why we take a logical, down-to-earth approach. We start with a call to get to know each other, and if we’re both still excited afterward, we schedule a face-to-face meeting.

Step 2. Getting to know each other

We’ve had our first chat and see potential on both sides. That’s why we plan a personal meeting to visit your farm in person. You won’t have a random salesperson showing up – no, it’ll be our Saskia, one of the founders of FarmCamps. During the visit, we’ll tell you all about our concept, what we do at FarmCamps, the possibilities available, and what’s expected from you. Of course, we’re also very curious about your farm, your animals, and your story. If everything clicks, we move on to step 3.

Step 3. Intent and permits

We confirm our intent to work together. We look at the options in terms of the number of tents, where they could be placed, and how the setup would look. Still feeling good about it? Then we go to the local authorities together to apply for the necessary permits. And yes, from experience, we know that some municipalities take longer than others. But we almost always manage to get the required permits together.

Step 4. Time to build!

Yes! We’ve got the permit secured. Now it’s time to set up the infrastructure and place the tents. Again, we do this together – and of course, we take care of purchasing and setting up the tents!

Step 5. Opening and marketing

We do everything we can to ensure the tents are fully booked, so the farm truly generates more income. At the same time, you organize the farm activities for your guests. Naturally, any revenue from these activities is entirely yours. Before the first guests arrive, we’ll work together to make sure you’re fully prepared. And once the guests are there, we’re always available to help and assist!

Op Flakkee - Huibert and Annet

“We have been affiliated with FarmCamps since 2017. For us it is a nice addition to our dairy farm; first of all, we are farmers and we like to give guests something to share about our farm and the sector, besides that it is financially strengthening our business.

The great thing about the cooperation with FarmCamps is that they take care of all the booking and aftercare issues. Moreover, the atmosphere together is relaxed and the lines are short. That works well.

We enjoy having guests who say they had a fantastic stay with us and often come back! Of course you have to put in the time, but with some experience this time can be planned well. The interaction with guests is great fun and enriching; during milking and on the farmyard, I hear the most beautiful accents and stories!

People have great respect for farmers and marvel at the world behind their glass of milk. Children often don’t want to leave the farmyard at all and forget iPad and TV; in reviews you read back how much fun they often had.”

Fleur Stables - Jan and Saskia

“FarmCamps is a very nice concept, I think it is definitely worth joining this in 2012. It also provides good side income for us! We are now FarmCampers for the 14th season and achieve a good return, also considering the number of hours we put in during peak season with the two of us. Because of FarmCamps, many different people come to the farmyard than usual, which makes for great conversations and is hearty fun!

We even have many returning guests, some children get into the car crying after their holiday because they don’t want to go home yet and will miss their pony so much. That says enough anyway!”

Advice from farmer Jan:

“If you have become curious about the concept I would say, go and visit one of the farmers affiliated with FarmCamps. Then you will really get a good impression of what it is like to be a FarmCamper. At the office, they will be happy to help you make an appointment for this.”

De Kamperhoek - Huub and Martine

“FarmCamps de Kamperhoek gave a ‘go’ back in 2013 and started the partnership. We were immediately excited when we saw the beautiful glamping tents.

FarmCamps is something you do together. Both the FarmCamps team, and the farm family do their utmost to make the guests happy. 1+1 should be 3, then you do it right. The guests require a lot of attention, but it’s also oh so much fun! Despite the hustle and bustle, you have a holiday feeling on your own farm!

In our opinion, if you also want to start FarmCamps, priority 1 is that you like dealing with people and certainly like dealing with children and can make them feel very welcome on your farm and teach them something in the process.”
