Guided tours at 14:30 and 16:30 On the theme of the transmission of knowledge: The owners will welcome visitors for a guided tour of the Orchard Garden, the Large Park, the ponds, the Villet waterfall and the Domaine de Lavaux beehive at 14:30 and 16:30 precise. They will recall the exemplary work carried out by Ernest Chaumeton, a stone craftsman with a silver medallion at the 1900 Universal Exhibition in Paris, who enriched the Estate with nearly 50 decorative works, party pavilion, bridges, footbridges, stairs, kiosk, cave, jetty or duck, gardener’s huts, false trees, false trunks, imitating wood or stone, by an effect of trompe-the breathtaking eye obtained by the technique of reinforced cement mortar to which the artist brings in finish the gesture of a sculptor of great talent. The Association des Croqueurs de pommes des Trois Provinces, for its part, will offer visitors an educational workshop for young and old developing knowledge about the life and maintenance of fruit trees; indeed the orchard of Lavaux presents among others a remarkable collection of old pear trees in espaliers On this occasion, will be made as part of the hive of Lavaux, built at the end of the nineteenth century and still in activity, a demonstration of the life of the apiary by the beekeeper Mr Ludovic Guillonneau who takes care of the hives and its bees and harvest as in the first days a delicious honey; children are therefore more than welcome for this educational meeting. For information, Paul Vildieu, great-grandfather of the current owners, had organized in the field a life in perfect autarchy; to obtain at different periods of the season honeys with complementary flavors, he had planted so close to the apiary, in the forest, species such as linden, acacias, hazelnuts and fir trees...in addition to the innumerable flowers in this agricultural field that allowed bees to forage efficiently.
