Gourmet products local specialties and wines Port-En-Bessin-Huppain

In early 2020, during the first confinement, a new project was born in Commes in the Bessin region, between Bayeux and the D-Day beaches. L'Arbre, an agri-cultural third place, is the result of the strong ties that exist in the small commune. From now on, one and the same place will bring together agriculture and culture. Inspiring!

On the agricultural side: Le Jardin de Deux'Main. A word of advice: take the time to stroll and smell the countryside before heading off to Port-en-Bessin. Stop off at Guillaume's! Passion and love, agroecology, no-till market gardening on living soil, agroforestry and permaculture are just some of the ingredients of his philosophy, and of his nearly three hectares of garden. The result: tasty fruit and vegetables. The market gardener is just like his garden: both delicate and generous. And don't forget the fresh eggs from his mini-farm. Direct sales every Tuesday and Friday.

On the cultural side: Tiers-Lieu L'Arbre. A place open to all (workshops, gatherings and events online). A perfect stopover for cyclists following the Vélomaritime or the cycle route from the D-Day landing beaches to Mont-Saint-Michel, the farm also offers self-catering accommodation. Guests share the communal living areas, cooking and eating together! And soon, a large auditorium, an associative café and a coworking space will see the light of day! It's an innovative place that advocates a collective approach: one to watch, as it evolves at great speed.

Luxurious, the boutique flatters eyes like papillae. The keyword is here 'quality' and necessarily, it has a price… Products are sorted on the component: teas of Kusmi Tea or Dammann Frères, preserved of fish La Belle Iloise, olive oils of the Baux de Provence, Dolfin and Cluizel chocolates, caviar Kaspia, products based on algae. In short, the top of the basket of French gastronomy (and elsewhere), together for fine palaces (and well-filled wallet!). A word on the cellar, which we don't see right now but which is immense and worth its weight of bottles. It is a separate world, where all regions of France are represented. It is possible to find pearls, especially in Languedoc wines or to offer a Vosne-Romanée, in piosing in his piggyback… Added to this is a whiskies radius and a beautiful Norman selection where the vintage calvados occupy a privileged place.
