Created in 2009 by 3 farmers, Philippe Morel, Loïc Boyer and Alain Maillot, the aim of this association is to share knowledge and a real passion.

Wanting to showcase their products and their profession, these men of the land offer travellers a chance to visit their farm and taste the fruit and vegetables of yesteryear. The visit is followed by a traditional lunch served on banana leaves.

Philippe Morel also offers a cookery workshop with a wood fire prior to the start of the visit.
A full day where visitors can immerse themselves in the life of a Creole farmer.
