The harvest may be a bit disappointing this year due to the weather, but there are still plenty of pears to pick at Wim Oskam’s fruit farm. Every year around this time, the fruit grower from Werkhoven hires pickers from Polish employees. They come to work for a few weeks and then return to their home country. “For me, these are the most loyal people there are. They always work hard, have little comment and are never sick,” says Oskam.
