LA FERME DU MONT-VALÉRIEN

Since 1994, the pedagogical farm of Mont-Valérien has discovered the nature and the environment of the farm to the children of Rueil. A hectare of greenery comprising an orchard, a vegetable garden, a wooden barn and a thatched roof, where animals are housed (a lower courtyard, a pig, six sheep, two cows). There is also a kitchen, a dormitory, a dining and a library. Supervised by five specialist facilitators, children are involved in the care and nourrissage of animals, in the milking of cows, in gardening, in the manufacture of bread, apple juice… During open doors, workshops around wool, milk or gardening, and since November 2011, cooking courses around well-being are organised. For the happiness of children and… parents!
