This network enables residents and visitors to buy directly from the source, ensuring fresh and high-quality produce. And by eating these delicious products, you also indirectly contribute to preserving and managing our beautiful landscape and local biodiversity. Now that's tasty!
Cycling route: taste the landscape!
Taste the southern IJssel Valley of the Veluwe.

IJsselmarke stands for short chains, craftsmanship and a special and unique landscape in which nature and agriculture reinforce each other.
