Parckfarm Tour & Taxis Brussels

Wouter from Brussels

About me I was born and raised in Leuven, a small but dynamic student town not far from Brussels. I'm a music addict and cinema aficionado, interested in sports, photography and good food. Thanks to some coincidences at my job I had the opportunity to work a year in the lovely city of Genoa. When I came back from Italy and had to look again for a nice place to live, Brussels was...

Parckfarm Tour & Taxis Brussels

Community driven greenery

""Parckfarm Tour & Taxis" is an active eco-community run by volunteers that has existed in Brussels for some years already. You have to see the farmhouse!"

Parckfarm is the real green deal: some artists, eco-minded architects and motivated locals took initiative and rebuilt an old site near an abandoned train track creating a community driven park. This redevelopment happened years ago and despite constant rumors that the park, its animals, the bread/pizza-oven, the kitchen garden, etc. would have to go, it is still alive and kicking. The city of Brussels is now planning all kinds of new projects in the area, but in theory the park, although smaller than hoped for, will remain untouched.

Because the main part of the park lies beneath most surrounding streets, it's an ideal hideaway from the usual city noise. A big slice of peace and quiet is not always guaranteed though, the people behind Parckfarm are an active community: in summer you might just stumble upon a lounge party, cooking classes or an open air yoga session, so checking out their website beforehand could be a good idea.

For the easiest access, take the entry right across metro Pannenhuis. The beating heart of the park is the farmhouse, where if you're lucky you can score some vegetarian snacks, 300 metres to the southwest.

A Japanese corner

If you come with a group, I suggest taking the “Moriawase” (Japanese for “assortment”), a larger plate that is easier to share and to try different things.
