Hulotte and Ciboulette and its commitments

Macramé workshopPédagogie par la Nature group meeting

Network of ‘buissonnier.es’ in the West

Since its creation in 2020, Louise has been actively involved in the Buissonnier.es network in western France. This network is open to anyone who runs or is involved in an environmental education project in the Pays de Loire region. Together, we share our experiences and put our ideas into practice, drawing inspiration and fresh ideas to ensure we welcome our groups outdoors in the best possible way. It is a supportive group that enables us to develop our skills by sharing our expertise.

GRAINE Network, Pays de la Loire region

By taking part in the Graine regional network, Louise can continue to develop her skills, reflect on her work and meet new people working in the field of nature education, which helps to enrich her practice.

Your questions about our nature activities and outings on the farm

Do you organise school trips or nature camps in Bois-de-Céné in the Vendée?

Yes, Le Jardin de la Bardonnière welcomes school groups all year round. To ensure the best possible experience, we accommodate one class at a time, with a maximum of around thirty children. The programmes are tailored to the seasons and the children’s ages. A preliminary meeting can be arranged with teachers to discuss in advance whether they wish to focus on a particular theme. Picnics are permitted on site, and activities can be organised for half a day or a full day. For further information, please contact Louise on 06 49 22 67 28 or at hulotteetciboulette@ecomail.fr.

Who runs the nature and environment workshops on the farm?

The workshops are led by Louise (a facilitator since 1997 and trained in Nature-Based Education in 2019). She has extensive experience in facilitating activities, welcoming groups and delivering training.

What is ‘Hulotte and Ciboulette’?

‘Hulotte and Ciboulette’ offers fun, sensory-based nature activities for all ages, including workshops focusing on the senses, land art and outdoor games, and exploring different habitats. Louise runs her workshops all year round, in tune with the garden’s natural rhythm.
