Activity description
Introduction to Regenerative Agriculture - A half-day to understand, observe and learn
This experience is designed for those - adults and young people aged 16 and over - who wish to discover in depth the fundamentals ofregenerative agriculture, understand how it works, or consider training in it.
🌱 Understanding grass growth
We'll start with the basics: how grass grows, how it renews itself, what promotes its vigor and resilience. You'll discover why grassland is a real driver of soil regeneration.
💧 Water principles and management
We'll look at soil water dynamics, the importance of water cycles and how regenerative agriculture works with water rather than against it.
🐄 The essential role of animals in the ecosystem
Through observation of the herd and its impact, you'll understand how animals contribute to fertility, soil aeration, grassland dynamics and landscape protection.
🔄 Dynamic rotational grazing
We explore one of the pillars of regenerative agriculture: rotational grazing. How it's organized, what benefits it brings to the land, the animals and the farmer, and how it creates a virtuous circle for the ecosystem as a whole.
👀 Observation and reflection
Throughout the day, we'll alternate between explanations, observation in the field and time for discussion. The aim: to enable you to understand the realities of the business, ask your questions and feed your personal or professional reflection.
🥾 Half-day format; 200 EUR/group (excluding Breakfast/Meal option)
🍽️ Optional: Breakfast or snack prepared with products from the farm and garden, to extend the pleasure and enjoy a real gourmet moment.
An immersive, concrete and fascinating experience, for those who want to go further and discover an agriculture that regenerates the earth as much as it feeds humans.
