Together with my brother Frans, Bart is a prominent Flemish boinero, keeping beret wearing alive in Belgium!
Bart has been the head of the Green Department of the City of Aalst for 20 years, totaling over 40 years work for the city.
Aalst is a leading city where it concerns ecologically sound management, commitment to a diverse natural environment and maintaining a balance between greenery and letting nature take its course.
Bart is passionate about trees (to use an understatement), as evidenced on his Facebook page de Aardsterrenkijker (many beret photos included!). He also has an amazing talent for captivating stories, told with humor and swagger.

Bart got his first beret at a flea market in Gent, and was hooked.
More berets followed from trips to the Basque Country and presently, he wears a French Vrai Basque.
