Solidarity
Finding meaning in a fulfilling activity, regaining self-confidence, building and developing one’s career path—this is what we offer to the women and men from all backgrounds welcomed by our association.
Everyone, despite the challenges they’ve faced, can find their way back to employment if given the opportunity.
Through this state-approved Integration Program, we offer personalized support to overcome barriers to integration and secure stable employment.
Working to protect biodiversity and improve the environment—that’s our challenge!
We have been selected by the CEN (Conservatory of Natural Areas) to practice agroecology and agroforestry on a 4-hectare plot at the Domaine de Mirabeau, owned by the municipality of Fabrègues.
We are implementing major projects to promote biodiversity:
Planting 4,000 trees and creating two ponds in the fall of 2020 to improve soil fertility, provide shade / reduce the impact of climate change, recreate natural habitats within our crops, and stabilize our production.
We offer organic baskets every week for direct sale at the farm. You’ll find a wide variety of products from the Domaine de Mirabeau and its surroundings…
From field to plate, our fruits and vegetables are delivered to local stores and the Fabrègues Central Kitchen.
We are pleased to welcome you to environmental awareness activities for children and adults in partnership with the CEN (Conservatoire des Espaces Naturels)
We collaborate with local farmers to share and pass on innovative techniques.
