JARDIN PARTAGÉ DE TRENELLE CITRON
Go there and contact
On the slopes of Morne Garnier grows a mini-urban jungle where vegetables, medicinal plants and fruit trees live in harmony. This is where the Centre de Culture Populaire Ypiranga de Pastinha Martinique (CCPYPM) has developed an experimental urban garden in an old quarry that had to be completely cleared and redeveloped.
A project that was a little mad at the beginning, but which has been fruitful since the association has been entrusted with the development of an eco-environment, this time located in Tivoli.
It must be said that the CCPYPM association has energy to spare. A dozen people, employees, civic services and volunteers, work daily to reconnect the inhabitants with nature and use the garden as a support for environmental education.
Through the work of the land, the idea is to transmit values such as sharing, raise awareness of eco-citizen issues (waste recycling, safeguarding local heritage) and learn to eat healthily. Here, a part of the plots is managed by the association and the young people of the district; the other part is put at the disposal of the inhabitants to cultivate their vegetables.
Events are regularly organized. People come here to learn how to garden, to watch the aquaponics ponds work and to feed the rabbits and chickens in the garden. The association has also developed a solidarity store that delivers baskets to isolated people, as well as a mini-market every first Saturday of the month.
