International Seminars 2. Flower and Garden Lovers Trails.
Drawing on Gudruns expertise and experience in this area we have on the drawing board plans to include Flower Trails , workshops incorporated with visits to some of Belgiums hidden Gardens treasures which are not widely know beyond the countries borders and some special cultural highlights ..These will be more seasonal trails(not tours we do not see tourselves as tour operators rather we offer learning experiences and pleasure!) .We will be able to give you more information when our plans are off the drawing board and ready to share our concrete plans. Maybe we see our first trail launched Fall 2010 but more likely 2011.
