Educational project

Educational and support themes

• Discovery of animals
• Discovery of vegetable production
• Territory and local life
• Paysan skills
• Environmental education
• Nature discovery activities
• Farm visit
• Cooking & Nutrition
• Well-being activities

Our educational project is based on immersion in family and farm life. Children take part in daily life, organizing meals, maintaining their own space, caring for the animals, going for walks, picking their own food, and taking part in farm-related activities. Depending on their wishes and abilities, they can get involved in more specific tasks, such as milking, preparing meals or helping with the birth of lambs.

The aim is to develop autonomy, a sense of responsibility and self-confidence, while passing on the values of respect, simplicity and kindness. We tailor our care to the pace and needs of each child, combining active and quiet times to promote well-being, learning and personal development.

Services offered

• Temporary emergency care (weekends to several weeks).
• Accommodation in single rooms in a family setting.

AP/CIVAM partner approach

The welcome at this place is governed by a contract between the host and the social structure responsible for the welcomed person. This contract was co-written with the CIVAM network, as part of a partner approach for the structuring and development of social welcome throughout France.

Legal framework

Our business is run as a sole proprietorship (EI), which means that the farm and the social services come under a single legal structure, run by ourselves, Denis and Sophie. We don't have any specific administrative accreditation for social hosting, but we operate within the framework of the Fédération Nationale Accueil Paysan Hauts-de-France, which supports and guides us in the implementation of our hosting services.

A contract is drawn up for each placement, specifying the duration, terms and conditions, and the living environment, in order to guarantee the child's safety and well-being. The EI status enables us to combine our agricultural activities with social care, while remaining legally and financially responsible for the structure. We comply with all legal obligations relating to the accommodation and care of children, and ensure that all activities take place in a safe, supervised environment.

Rates

Price: 100€ / person per day with accommodation and meals.
