MARCHÉ DE TRENTEMOULT

Openair market

This tiny market has more than one trump card in its bag. First of all, it's 100% organic. It has been in place for about ten years and brings together 15/20 producers and traders. There are of course fruit and vegetable producers, but also butchers, pork butchers, fishmongers, cow and goat cheese producers, bakers, not forgetting winemakers and other local craftsmen making jams or herbal teas... As a bonus, a sweet smell of pancakes and take-away cakes floats in the air... Then, this small market is installed on the car park of the port of Trentemoult. That is to say at the entrance of a "postcard" village which is characterised by its pretty colourful houses and its banks of the Loire. Finally because the atmosphere is good-natured. Attended by Trentemousins and onlookers, one feels good there. One comes there on foot or by bike along the river or by Navibus if one lives on the other bank. We make a stop at the Café of the nearby port to drink a small coffee. We walk along the Quai Boissard to admire Roman Signer's Pendulum, a contemporary work of art created as part of the Voyage à Nantes (2009). In short, we take the time to stroll on a Saturday morning.
