Waste-free picnic table - Vrijbroekpark

Highlight • Rest Area

In the Vrijbroekpark in Mechelen there is a waste-free picnic table. At first glance there is nothing special to see on the table, except that it is quite large and unusually shaped. What is special, however, is that the table is made of wood from trees that come from the park. The idea is that visitors prepare their picnic at home and pack it in sealable boxes, so that they do not have to leave any waste behind. That is why there are no waste bins anywhere around the inaugurated picnic table.
