Solidarity and mutual aid Protecting nature and the environment Languedoc Roussillon

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. It has developed a turnkey vegetable garden rental concept for urban dwellers without a garden. 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.

This association has been established in the Biterrois since 1981 and has set itself the goal of educating the citizen on respect for the environment. It offers its members interesting documentary funds and meetings on topics such as land and marine pollution, technological accidents, species disappearance, climate change or the dangers of genetic manipulation.

The City's Environment Service manages the follow-up of the two local charters (habitat harmonization in garrigues, urban tree place). It is also responsible for monitoring air quality. Environmental awareness and education is done through the Network of Education for nature and the Environment of Gard. But the public will have access to more information and activities at the House of Nature and the Environment: 21, rue Soubeyranne 30100 Alès, Tel: 04 66 52 61 38 - http: //mne-rene30.org
