Hi! ...Welcome to the website ´Sunshine in an envelope´. A website about a beautiful sunflower.

Please let me explain.

For years now I grow this beautiful, béautiful sunflower in my garden.

It gives me an enormous joy to let her grow and every year, when she becomes a big, strong, colourful flower she amazes me more and more.

Also her compenionship is warm and joyfull and I consider her as my friend.

And now I have this idea!

I think it would be great if I let my dear friend grow all over the world!! If I let her DNA ánd her beauty explore and reach all corners of the globe. It will help her to multiply many times and become a very succesful flower. I think she deserves it so I want to give her that opportunity.

At the same time it is also a little statement I want to make. I want to say that nature is not 'just nature´ but that it beautiful and bigger than life. That we can't do without it and that we should take care of it. By creating this website I position myself in the global discussion about the environment and try to add something positive to it. Showing that I care in a 'sunny way'.

But therefore I need to meet the people who

 

think alike and want to participate.

And that is the reason why I have made this website. To find you.

So if you feel like I do, and also believe that a flower is much more than ´just a flower´, or maybe want to make this little statement ór if you think this is just a fun-idea, then please contact me to join in this 'little' adventure.

I will send you seeds of our sunflower by post, bringing you ´'sunshine in an envelope´!

By the way, my name is Mark van der Weijden and I live in Puurs/Belgium. Nice to meet you ...

and hope to hear from you!
