The atmosphere is good at the cutting department of Ten Have Plant where Anthoinette,Ingrid, Eline, Judith, Lianne, Loes, Louise, Magda, Margreet, Miranda, Silvia, Tanja, Willeke, Toos, Mirjam, Ricarda, Esther, Eline and Wendy cut cuttings from the marsh plants and then put them in trays with growing medium. We do this while talking, which is why there is a lot of fun. We work an average of about 20 hours spread over the week but we don’t go home until all the work is done. In the summer we are off for a longer period because then there is no cutting. ‘Without us no Ten Have Plant’, the 19 ladies say, laughing, but with a wink. ‘We are at the beginning of the growing process and that means we have to do our job well because the plant has to continue growing in a tent for 6 weeks before it is potted up for the further process in the greenhouse.’ <\/p>\n\n
Continuing to work even after retirement age<\/strong><\/p>\n\n It’s a lot of fun working at Ten Have Plant, we all agree. Most of them came in at a young age and stay until retirement. Toos and Magda continue even after retirement, because they can’t miss the work and each other. This is mainly because we take care of the work in the department together. We see it completely as our own store. Add up those years of experience of ours, it would be crazy if it didn’t work out, wouldn’t it? <\/p>\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The atmosphere is good in the cutting department of Ten Have Plant where the ladies cut cuttings from nut plants and then stick them in trays with growing medium.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3146,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2501","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"\n
