Jardin de Gaston
Chemin des Longes, 26120 Montmeyran
- Drôme
- Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes
Operated for more than 20 years by a gardener, Gaston, who was no longer able to continue, the site was bought by the municipality of Montmeyran in May 2021.
The vegetable garden and fruit trees have found a new generation thanks to the association of the "Jardins partagés de Montmeyran" which meets there to make a collective garden and organize demonstrations. The association promotes meetings in this privileged place to develop intergenerational ties, openness to others and citizen exchanges. An eco-responsible, ecological and democratic experimentation area, the garden contributes to the maintenance of biodiversity and the dissemination of knowledge, knowledge and know-how.
The site lends itself very well to environmental education activities.
Open to all, it is a very pleasant place as a walking area and freshness in summer.
It is also an ornamental garden with traces of roses, peonies, daylilies, clematis, camomile, periwinkles…
Access
Possibility to park on the dirt road or on the edge of the fields or in the rue d'Etoile located 150m from the garden.
