The Oasis Citadine association brings together innovative gardeners to teach you how to grow your own fruit and vegetables in a fun and friendly way.

Numerous events and workshops are organized every week; you can take part in qi gong or yoga classes, beekeeping workshops, wooden object creation or permaculture initiation, guided tours of the farm, and of course participate in the daily cleaning of the henhouse.

Agir pour les Animaux is an association under the 1901 law, totally independent of the SPA, created in 2000. Its vocation is to place abandoned or abused animals in new loving homes. To do this, it has a shelter with a permanent office open to the public all week and organizes adoption days once a month. Those who cannot adopt an animal can sponsor or help the association through monetary or in-kind donations: food, medicines, pet toys, textiles... You can also become a host family for a short period of time, until the association finds a new warm home for the animals.
