This arboretum has various species of exotic hardwoods with explanatory markers in a playful and educational way.

Or how a field of experimentation becomes a place of balade and curiosity! Created in 1952 to study the possibilities for the adaptation of conifers in Normandy, this forest arboretum grew in different species of exotic hardwood from the 60 s. Throughout a specified course of 1 200 metres, 40 explanatory terminals present the different species in a playful and educational way: did you know that giant red cedar was used to make totems, that Douglas needles have a parfum scent, that Redwood was introduced into Europe by immigrants who discovered it in the Gold rush? This arboretum is set up in a rearing training centre where children can attend trafficking and animal care. You can go back with your full bidon (50 cents euros per litre if you have a container, 1 € if provided). In the autumn, mushrooms can be collected freely (ceps, chanterelles, vintages, death trumpets) on the site.

Endroit génial pour les amoureux des vaches (comme moi), elles sont trop belles nos vaches normandes! Génial aussi pour les enfants qui penseraient que le lait ne se fait qu'en brick. Assister à la traite des vaches et acheter en direct le lait est un bonheur. Une madeleine de Proust. Les jeunes gens qui étudient dans ce CFA sont durs à la tâche et, attentifs aux animaux. On les sent passionnés et pourtant, ce n'est pas un métier facile. Admirable apprentissage. C'est aussi avec émotion que j'ai assisté à la naissance d'un veau, l'instinct maternel de la maman était très touchant. Y aller en vieilles baskets ou bottes en caoutchouc. Pas de chichis dans cet endroit, j'ai adoré.

petite promenade très sympa...
Méconnu, cet arboretum est pourtant riche et grand. Un agréable moment au milieu de toutes ces espèces d'arbres plus ou moins exotiques, plutôt photogéniques ! Pas visité la ferme, et je ne savais pas qu'on pouvait y ramasser des champignons, mais je reviendrai !
The trees are beautiful and course is maintained. The places are pleasant and nature. children enjoy veals stroke small farm next to the arboretum. You observe the milking cows there freely.
