  Description

  I'm Hervé, happy to live in a beautiful mountain region close to Switzerland.
  Plants play a central role around my place : I studied herbalism and permaculture, have a large orchard with plenty of fruits, a friend of mine grows her medicinal plants within the trees, and much more...
  My wish is to dedicate this living place to health and education around nature benefits.
