    Description

    We are an organisation planning to build a Third Place so that people can come and share ideas/moments around the permaculture, the nature and the well-being.

    We are currently 9 motivated people who are working on this project, Cathy, Véronique, Danielle, Giovanna, Nellie, Laurent and Fabien. Amandine and Martin are kindly helping us for the website and the garden.

    Recognised as one of the most beautiful localities in France, Saint-Cyr-sur-Mer, is the ideal place to experience the Provencal lifestyle. In the middle of Bandol vineyards and only few kilometers from the Mediterranean sea, the place is an ideally located venue, in a private rural setting of 1 hectare.
