  Description

  We live in Loire Atlantique in the countryside between Nantes and Angers, 15 minutes north of Ancenis and the banks of the Loire. We are a family with five children in total autonomy... We produce our fruits and vegetables on our 9 hectares of land, two of which are forest, 3000m2 of permaculture vegetable garden and 500m2 in 3 greenhouses including two walipinis. We also raise sheep, rabbits, pigeons, chickens, ducks and horses, an aquaponics installation and beekeeping. We do not put anything up for sale! Our productions are exclusively reserved for our food autonomy throughout the year... We offer accommodation and food in exchange for active participation in our daily lives... We are very open and love many things and sharing it with other people ;-)
