Educational workshops

Our workshops “Nature in cities”

Our workshops are designed to share simple and eco-responsible techniques, to learn about gardening according to season, to increase awareness on the protection of biodiversity and on the challenges of sustainable, local and healthy food. Our workshops consist of:

• A professional gardener /facilitator for a rich hands-on learning experience
• Active and interactive teaching methods because you don’t become a gardener by reading books
• Creations to take home with you to continue gardening at home!

We are offering two types of support:

Ad hoc workshops to take place inside or outside all year long.

We also remain at your disposal to create anything which are best suited to your needs and requirements: teambuilding, Biodiversity referent, collaborative site…
