Seed library:
Come drop off or take natural seeds freely. Collect some seeds from your seeds and come share them at the Masméjean mill. The opportunity to experience another mode of exchange based on self-management and trust.
The Moulin de Masméjean seed library was established in collaboration with the Les Arts Sauvages association. It's a shared space where anyone can freely deposit, exchange, or borrow reproducible seeds.
The objective is simple: to preserve biodiversity, promote autonomy in our gardens, and transmit local, living varieties adapted to our territories.
This sharing of seeds contributes to a collective, supportive project that respects living things.
