Created in 2002, Pistes-Solidaires is a non-profit association (in accordance
with the French Association Law 1901). Its objectives include the development of
exchanges in the social, cultural, educational and economic realms, which promote
personal, social and environmental respect.
Pistes Solidaires practises and promotes popular education, supports the
knowledge competences and behaviours which promote justice and equality in an
intercultural society and an interdependent world. It intends to increase public
awareness of global problems and to demonstrate the potential for change. Fur-
thermore, one of its challenges is to make it possible for people to understand the
connections between their lives and those of the entire world.
Pistes-Solidaires is working in the field of mobility in order to allow people,
at any age, to meet, learn and share their practices, passions, ideas and come back
changed. Pistes-Solidaires is a hosting, sending and coordinating organization of
European volunteers through the Youth in Action Program. Since 2008, the organi-
zation launched a large thinking/acting process about responsible consumption
with the Otesha project, a process, which allowed the organization to initiate strong
local and international partnerships and to go further on this subject today, through
urban community gardens. The organization has, since 2007, developed many pro-
jects in the frame of the LLP program, such as Learning Partnerships on immigration
and intercultural, and last year worked on intergenerational dialogue in community
gardens. The organization supervises also Leonardo trainees and coordinates the
sending and hosting of senior volunteers on the subject of youth, immigration and
responsible consumption since 2010.

The Réseau des Jardins Solidaires Méditerranéens, hereafter “RJSM” , a
non-profit association (in accordance with the French Association Law 1901). It is a
network which gathers a variety of associative gardens and organizations related to
collective gardens in the South East of France. It was initiated after the national
conference on community gardens of Nantes, in 1999, to offer to the community
gardens of the Mediterranean area a possibility to combine and leverage their ex-
perience, their practices and knowledge.
The objectives of the RJSM, are:
• To lead the network of Mediterranean community gardens;
• To develop exchanges and the continuous training of its stakeholders;
• To promote the existence of community gardens;
• To help elaborate on the projects of new gardens;
• To support the existing gardens.
The RJSM organization defines its values in accordance with the “Charte du
jardin dans tous ses états” (Charter of the Garden in all its forms) which is a charter
adopted by the workgroup “Jardin dans Tous Ses Etats”, a national group of re-
gional organizations/networks of community gardens.
Each garden is unique but all the gardens of our network recognize them-
selves in it because they share the same values, based on the respect of human
beings, environment and solidarity. Almost 100 gardens are flourishing on the
Mediterranean coast of Southern France, 35 were actual active members of the
organization in 2011.
To this end, the RJSM organizes various activities:
- non formal training: “exchanges-meetings”, garden tours, training trips... The
participants exchange knowledge and experiences, discover new gardens together.
These activities, conducted in a friendly atmosphere and contribute to the develop-
ment of each of its gardens.

- formal training sessions :mainly 2 or 3 days sessions, accessible as part of the con-
tinuous professional training and also for volunteers, they aim to allow trainees to
complete their projects e.g. "Creating and managing a shared Garden," "Discovery
of Therapeutic Horticulture"
-support to projects: the network can assist stakeholders (e.g. inhabitant communi-
ties, social centers, city councils, and other organizations) in creating their garden
project.

The Charter
“Jardin dans Tous ses Etats » :
• Strengthening social links, where living conditions have contrib-
uted to people being driven apart, with no social life, mutual aid or
dialogue;
• Allowing citizens, without cultural, ethnic or social discrimination,
to take over and enrich their daily environment;
• Establishing generous links, as well as being respectful towards
our Earth and nature, and acting in a responsible way;
• Enjoying the pleasures of creating, tasting, sharing, as new forms
of freedom and autonomy;

About the EUGO program
EU’GO “European Gardens Otesha” is an European project on urban commu-
nity gardens. These gardens, «European Urban Gardens Otesha » are seen as inno-
vative tools to work on different themes :
• the social cohesion thanks to a better intercultural and intergenera-
tional dialogue
• the social and professional (re)inclusion through training
• the education to sustainable development and the promotion of
healthy lifestyle
This two-years project (January 2012-December 2013) was developed by 6
organizations in five big European cities :
• Inwole, Potsdam, Germany -
• KC English, Plymouth, United Kingdom
• Cemea del Mezzogiorno, Rome, Italy
• Nexes, Barcelone, Spain -
• Pistes-Solidaires et le Réseau des Jardins Solidaires Méditerranéens,
Marseille, France
EU'GO has been founded with the support from LLP Programme, Grundtvig
Multilateral. It promotes the education for all, at all ages of life. The general idea of
EUGO is to create an educational innovation to: -
• facilitate the integration or reintegration into society,
• transfer skills,
• promote basic learning,
• create bonds between people
• exchange knowledge between the project partners and the benefi-
ciaries.
EUGO’s final output will be an internet website with a part dedicated to
learning about practices in the European urban gardens. The program is con-
structed in different steps:
1 to write a state of the art of the urban gardens in the 5 participating areas. This
7
state of the art includes a global review of urban gardening in the country and the
area, related with historical and social background
2 as part of the state of the art to produce descriptive info sheets on the urban
gardens of the areas
3 to collect “Good practices”: all the garden that wanted have fill in “Practice
sheet” to describe some of their practices related to: management, organization,
activities etc.
4 to test the practices by transferring them between garden
As part of this transfer process we organised 5 study visits, one in each country, to
give the opportunity to participants of the project to meet and learn from each
other
Next to come: the participating garden will have to try and implement practices
from other country, and give a report on the experiment. We will need a minimum
of 2 practices tested in each country (not 2 in each garden!)
5 with all the material collected produce around 25 activity/ practice sheets with
the requirement and methodology to implement the practices (minimum require-
ment is 5 fully detailed sheets per country )
6 construct the website
We are currently (fall 2012) in the middle of the transfer phase.
We collected more than 46 practices from the different gardens, but it has not be
easy for the gardens to find out what were their “good practices" and we would
need your help, participant of the last of the study visits, to complete the existing
practices sheets, or to write some new ones with what you see in this visit that you
want to bring back to your garden.
The EUGO staff will hold at your disposal for you to read :
the state of the art (the French part is enclosed in this booklet)
The gardens’ information sheets
The list of all the practices collected so far
The detailed sheet for each practice (when it exists, they’re not all finished)
And we will have some blank practices sheets for you to complete during this SV.
After the SV with these sheets you will be able either to implement a new practice
in your garden, either to help someone implementing in his garden a practice of
yours that you described.
We hope this visit in France will be fruitful for all of us!

Marseille and its area:
The EU’GO project takes place within the PACA region in France : Provence-
Alpes-Côte-d’Azur. It’s a Mediterranean region with a mild climate. The region is
divided into six « départements » (French territorial NUTS-3 division). The three
coastal ones are the « Bouches-du-Rhône », the « Var » and the « Alpes Mari-
times ». The two alpine ones are the « Hautes Alpes » and the « Alpes de Haute
Provence ». The « Vaucluse » is a continental département. PACA is very densely
populated with 4,882,913 inhabitants in total and 155 inhabitants per square me-
ter.
The PACA region is, on one side, a very urbanized area, with 94,3% of its in-
habitants living in the major cities, like Marseille, Nice, Toulon or Avignon. On the
other side, the alpine and continental areas are more rural, and don’t face a big
density of population. The main activities of this region are :
- tourism (1st hosting place for French tourists, and 2nd in terms of foreign tourists)
with a large offer of services: nautical activities, mountain sports, Natural protected
areas, cultural activities;
- agriculture (wine, olive-trees, flowers, market gardening);
Local context: Marseille and its area
25
- industry (petrochemical industry, nuclear, naval shipyards, metallurgy, oil refine-
ment).
This region in not homogeneous in terms of density of population, and
therefore in terms of job opportunities, integration, life quality, health, education,
etc. For example, the unemployment rate reaches 9.1 % at the end of 2011, which
is higher than the national rate (7.2%) and the “Bouches-du-Rhône” has a 10.2 %
unemployment rate, the higher of the PACA region.
Marseille, capital of this département, is a multicultural city with a lot of
people coming from Maghreb, Western Africa, Comores, etc. which give a very spe-
cial cultural frame to Marseille. Marseille has a peculiar spatial organisation, con-
strained between the Mediterranean on the west, and the hills that are surround-
ing the city.
The city itself is divided between richer neighbourhoods in the south of the
city, with smaller buildings, and individual houses, and poorer areas in the North,
with high density of inhabitants. Marseille was composed of scattered neighbour-
hoods, usually around a parish church and the urbanisation of the last century re-
sulted in big blocks of housing being constructed between those neighbourhoods.
26
In the Northern part of the city you can find areas called “cites”: large high-rise
housing estates build from the 50’s to 70’s of HLM (low rents housing). These cites
are physically quite closed around themselves, with few entrances leading to the
center. In them live people with low social level, with a high percentage of people
from immigration background.
Collective gardening is has a rich history in France, and can be traced back
to at least the middle ages where communal lands are owned by an entire village
for example. In the past two centuries collective gardening has mean mainly worker
gardens, “Jardins ouvriers” that where developed by employers’ philanthropy and
charity, mainly in the North. The fact to “offer” a garden to a worker contributed to
provide food for the often miserable workers, but was also be a way to pay less the
workers and make them even more dependant of the factory, like was often the
fact of providing housing.
At the end of the XIXth century there was a new dimension of morality in
the development of those gardens: for the social Catholicism of that period the
world of factories corrupts both minds and bodies and attributing a garden to the
chiefs of families is as much a charitable help for food as an intent to occupy them
with healthy practices, far away from pubs and syndicalist meetings. The abbot
Lemire (Member of the parliament for the city of Hazebrouck, North) created in
1896 the “Ligue du coin de terre et du Foyer”, “League of the patch of land and
Dwelling » to promote and federate the worker collective gardens, and promote
the idea of each worker family installed in a house with a garden.
It also valorises the “free” work of the gardener, master of its time and pro-
duction process against the industrial work and the “slave” work of the peasant. In
1921 that ligue create the first attempt at a national network: the “Fédération Na-
tionale des Jardins Ouvriers de France”.
Local context: the urban gardens in France and RJSM
27
The worker gardens developed in the first half of the XXth century, and
through the second World War. They are re-Christianized “Jardins Familliaux” ie
“Family gardens” in 1952 but lot of them disappeared in the reconstruction after
the war, where land is taken to build/rebuild houses. Their federation becomes the
“Fédération Nationale des Jardins Familliaux”, “National federation of family gar-
dens”. In the 70’s they become more protected by the law (a municipality wanting
to take the land for construction must provide the same surface elsewhere) they
are re-legitimated by the discovery of the hard poverty that strikes a growing part
of the French population. In 2006 the federation becomes the “Fédération Nation-
ale des Jardins Familiaux et Collectifs”, “National federation of family and collective
gardens”. Those gardens are generally located on the peripheries of cities, with
plots of average surface 50 to 150 m2, typically fenced and with a small shed. They
have internal regulation that can refers to among others the type of plants to be
cultivated (eg: only vegetables, vegetables at least 80%-flowers, one fruit tree per
plot...), the shape of the shed, the percentage of soil to be cultivated on the plot
(eg: no lawn, least than 20% not cultivated …). Their main objective is to produce
food, although they tend to open to new activities like environmental education.
Another form of collective gardens is the gardens related to the national
railways company SNCF: The worker gardens attributed to SNCF staff are grouped in
the organization “Jardinot, Jardin du cheminot”. Those gardens located close to the
railways or stations were originally restricted to SNCF staff but are now opening to
anyone although most of the plots seem to be still cultivated by SNCF staff or their
families. Those gardens do not exist in all the parts of France, but the organization is
Garden of the Cité St Pierre district, Lens 1906 Gardens of Wazier, minig city next to Douai

active on all the national territory offering field trip, meetings and exchanges be-
tween members, as well as gardening advices.
In the end of the 70’s a new current branches from the “classical” collective
gardening: the Second World War and its deprivations has encouraged urban in-
habitants to invest public space to grow what was missing in stores. In the mid 70s,
in New York and in cities across North America, popular initiatives invest vacant
places turning them into garden area. Over 750 community gardens are created in
New York City! Those are not only about producing food, but also about meeting on
common ground and collective projects. Soil and ideas are shared.
In the mid-80s, in France, some social workers, grassroots activists and other gar-
deners were interested in these practices of collective ownership. The “Fondation
de France” , (a national foundation that administrate many funds and foundations
in France) saw this as an opportunity to develop social ties, while taking into ac-
count, even partially, the concerns of self-sufficiency. The Fondation de France
helped funding several trips overseas to study the conditions for the emergence of
such initiatives in France.
Small groups worked on these issues and adapted, among other practices,
North American practices to our urban and sociological data, in different parts of
France. They met during two conferences in Lille (1997) and Nantes (1999) several
hundred people involved in similar initiatives or wishing to develop them and that
was the start of the national network of shared gardens, called JTSE “Le Jardin dans
Tous Ses Etats” (“The Garden in all its Forms”).
Numerous different terms are used to describe those gardens: Jardins com-
munautaires (Community gardens), jardins de proximité (proximity gardens), jar-
dins collectifs d’habitants (collective gardens for inhabitants), jardins de voisinages
(neighbourhood gardens), jardins de pied d’immeuble( foot housebuilding gar-
dens), Jardins solidaires (solidarity gardens) are used in differents parts of France or
in differents contexts, but the national group choose to use the term of shared gar-
dens, Jardins Partagés.
The RJSM, our local organisation, was created as part of this “JTSE” dynamic but in
its case the reference term is more “Jardin solidaire” “Solidarity gardens” because it
was chosen prior to the national term, and kept.
29
The 90’s correspond in France with a renewal of the garden and the garden-
ing: gardens and gardeners are visible in medias, gardening is a trendy leisure, gar-
den shops are developping fast, gardening is no longer limited to specialised ma-
gasines.The gardening world has its yearly events, from the very chicexhibition to
the local plants and cuttings barter. The ministry of culture created th national days
of gardens “Rendez-vous au jardin” which take place every first week end of june
since 2001.The 90’s were also a period with economical facilities for the non profit
associations, with special contracts, the “emplois jeunes” for young people easily
available to create a new activity. In this context numerous initiatives of collective
gardening flourishing around the country took the form of association with one or
few employeers assuring the quality and perennity of the project. However the
situation has been changing dramatically recently for the associations, with the end
of the “emploi jeunes” in 2005, the global diminution in subventions in all sectors,
and the harsh reduction of financial help to employement in the last 2 years. Conse-
quently numerous structure have desappeared or been in difficulties. This has
forced the gardens and the association to devise new ways of doing the things to
survive and be creative to adapt.
In 1998 the French government created two integration special devices:
-Insertion par activité économique: Integration by economical activity to employ
unemployed persons with social or particular professional difficulties called
“chantier d’insertion”. In that system the employee has a real work contract for a 6
month to 1 year period, and the employer receive finacial support from the govern-
ment.
-social integration actions: to socially integrate people that can not, at a time, inte-
grate the economical activity. The activity is supported finacially by the government
and the participating persons are helped by social services.
Some gardens developped in those two systems. Two main networks exist in
France: Reseau Cocagne is constituted by vegetable farms, Chantier ecole can
group organisation creating and maintening gardens and green spaces among other
activities developped in those integration systems. As integration is often one of the
diverse activities of a non profit organisation that manages a garden many collec-
tive gardens can be part of those networks.

Urban gardens networks:
We have identified four main networks of collective gardens in France:
- The “Fédération Nationale des Jardins Familiaux et Collectifs”, “National federa-
tion of family and collective gardens”
- “Jardinot, Jardin du cheminot”
- Network of integration organisations: “Jardins de Cocagne” “Chantier Ecole”
- The JTSE “Jardin dans tous ses Etats” of which the RJSM is member.
As the RJSM is part of the JTSE network we will be working mainly with shared gar-
dens although the EUGO project is also an occasion to work with the other forms of
urban gardens.
The National Network JTSE:
United by common values, formalized in a Charter, the members of the na-
tional network represent most regions of France, where they act to promote the
implementation, by the people, of shared gardens. Managed by a group of regional
structures, associations and cooperatives, the JTSE is a recognized interlocutor by
the various official bodies, proposal force behind many publications, training or
meetings about the issue of shared garden. Nowadays the national network of
shared gardens can no longer rely on financial support of the beginning (“Fondation
de France”), but is running more on a volunteering system. The JTSE holds generally
4 annual 2 days meetings a year, each regional network hosting in turn. The JTSE is
now a recognized interlocutor for various official organizations and is still working
on different themes related to the shared garden. It is organizing again this year,
31
2012, a major national conference on the theme of urban gardens and the citizen
initiatives to feed the cities, to be held in Strasbourg in October.
Regionally, there is a wide variety of situations: In some region a clear public policy
supports the emergence of shared gardens and local administration organize a net-
work or strongly help financially the organization in charge of the local networks,
but in other parts of the territory the networks do not have such opportunities.
In some areas the organization in charge of the network develops and cre-
ates new gardens which become part of the network. In our area (the south of
France, Mediterranean region) the network was constituted by grouping together
pre-existing gardens/structures. The RJSM organization relies on a group of active
volunteering structures which lead the network; some structure or garden can as-
sume an important role in the life of the network for a moment then become less
implicated and then become again more implicated, depending on for example ca-
pacity or interest of the staff members. The regional council of the Région PACA
supports the network.
The RJSM is the representing JTSE in Provence Alpes- Côte d'Azur and has
members in the Gard and Herault. The RJSM headquarters is located in Charleval, a
small village in the Bouches-du-Rhone (48 km from Marseille). The RJSM is repre-
sented by local correspondents
The different kinds of gardens:
There is a wide variety of urban gardens are in the territory of RJSM. Most of
those gardens are related to a non-profit organisation (French Loi de 1901system)
which gives a legal status to any group of person registered with the local prefec-
ture. A few other garden are related to a social/educational structure like a school,
a hospital or a centre for special needs people and very few have no special status
but are only the fact of some people being together to garden. Each garden is
unique, distinguished by his example by location or by the type of activities that are
practiced there but we can try to categorize them by their kind of activities or the
public they aim to.
32
Educational gardens:
Devised for environmental education, they usually have employees receiving
the school/groups in the garden or going inside the schools and centers to do some
activities related to the garden or the environment or sometimes to install gardens
inside the structures. They often include vegetables and flowers gardens, some-
times orchard, and often “wild” flora areas.
Jardin des Aures, Marseille Jardins de l’Espérance, La Ciotat
Inclusion gardens:
The garden is a resourceful place, conducive to the resumption of confi-
dence in oneself and others, and a springboard to employment. These gardens can
be for social inclusion, in that case the coordinator is employee, but the beneficiar-
ies are volunteers; or for job inclusion, in that case the beneficiaries are employees
as well, with special contacts with funding by the government.

Inhabitant gardens
This is a shared space (usually public), hosted and managed by a group of
residents in a dynamic development of neighbourhood life .
Jardin de Gibraltar, Marseille
Shared gardens
These gardens often mix individual and collective plots, most of them have a
professional coordinator, at least part time, that helps organising the life of the gar-
den, there is a social objective which is supported by the owner of the land, usually
a public institution, or a social landlord.

Family gardens
These gardens include individual plots for cultivation and collective facilities.
They usually don’t have paid staff and are run by volunteers in a non profit organi-
zation, or sometimes directly by a city council.

Thematic gardens
A garden may also specialize to be therapeutic, culinary, artistic, experimen-
tal, conservatory of rare plants or useful, heritage, etc. These kind of garden can be
part of our network if there are managed and cultivated with collective participa-
tion, in the form of non profit organization.

We are starting the visit with one day out of Marseille to visit Croq Jardin, in
La Roque d’Anthéron, the garden of Jean (participant in SV3, Roma) and Gonzague
(participant in SV2, Kingsand)
We will spend the morning with presentation from some of the European
visitors, but keep some for the next days, and the visit of the garden. It will made
like a kind of “interview”, by asking 3 of you about their gardens and practices. Un-
fortunately we will not have a projector for computer, but we’ll print some picture
if needed.
Lunch should be provided by the garden, except if the weather is too bad
For the afternoon we propose different workshop, you will be able to choose
2 from:
A) gardening with disabled people: what is the interest of hotitherapy,
what are the characteristics of a garden for hortitherapy
B) having a workhop in your garden: “to build an insect house”
C) having a workshop in your garden about composting
D) the practices of Croq Jardin related to work with teenagers
E) having some educational activities with children in the garden
We would like to offer to you to exchange with some of the French gardeners about
their practices, but also about yours, the aim of each of these workshop being to
write together an “activity sheet” to be use by you if you want to implement this
practice in your garden, and to be the basis of the activity sheets that will be put on
the EUGO learning website next year.

vegetables
An educational pond
A garden of herbs and medicinal plants
A pathways about water and irrigation devices
An orchard
Greenhouses
A small conference room
A Composting area for professionals
A solar kitchen, a pizza oven, and spaces for pique-nique

A day in the northern districts of Marseille:
We would like to spend this day on the following topics:
How to rally gardeners to a project of urban garden,
how to transmit knowledge (about gardening but also other topics) in these gar-
dens
We’ll go first to the district of Saint Antoine, to Cosmos Kolej, a garden set
up by a theatre company in one of the difficult northern « cités » of Marseille and
meet there Mrs Mireille Gouiran, who is the responsible of the Service for urban
gardens of the City, and then go to the districts of Le Merlan, La Busserine, to meet
the people from SAFI, and discuss with them the use of art to bring people inside
the gardens
In Cosmos Kolej, like on Monday, we will take a time to “interview” two of
you about your gardens and projects. We may have a projector for computer.
In the evening we will stay in this area and have a buffet diner there, this
should provide you some time to exchange about your practices, and experiences,
and to write on our “practice sheets” for the website. We won’t go back to the ho-
tel before sleeping time, so make sure to take all you need with you!

Cosmos Kolej : Cosmos kolej is a kind of Cultural center in the
Northern neighbourhood of Marseille, set up by a theatre
company. It is an artists residency: theatre, circus, arts, musi-
cians, film makers. Staff: 9 cultural workers (1 specific for
gardens).
garden is one of the activity of the organisation: 3 gardens,
plots for 62 families + 4 childcare classes. Main activi-
ties:
-Workshop “Du jardin à l’assiette”: 4 groups of 24 pupils come 4 times during the year and
discover the links between what is growing and what we eat.
-Gardening initiation week for youngsters with their educators + presentation to the
neighbours.
-Seasonal meetings with gardeners: share information, wishes, collective tasks: clean the
paths, small repair activities.
SAFI: SAFI stands for « du Sens, de l’Audace, de la Fantaisie
et de l’Imagination », you know (or you will learn this week)
that French people do love acronyms. This translate as
« some meaning, nerve, imaginativeness, imagination ». It is
a non profit organisation of artists, people creating art exhibitions, art experiences, and
scenography. They aim to bring into scene and lignt the relation between men and their
territories.
Dalila Ladjal and Stéphane Brisset
Jardin d’Adam: The shared garden began in 2008 on the remains of
the gymnasium of the school district, burned in 2005. This
is a group of women called "Women in Action" which saw
the abandoned gymnasium as an opportunity to realize the
garden of which they all desired. The garden is born of this
desire and of the desire to transform the gymnasium become a dangerous playground for
children. The women's group broke the concrete using a jackhammer and cleared the rubble
to reach the ground. They made compost with SAFI and used it to make the land fertile.
many people became involved in the construction and to sustain the garden.
This garden allows users to share friendly moments: “Garden sale” (like a car boot
sale but for gardens!) are held each year at the initiative of the "District Committee". All gar-
deners of the district are invited to exchange and / or sell their seeds and plants

In the eastern district of Marseille
Today we’ll go to meet the organisation AMIEU, which supports the creation
of garden at the foot of the big housing blocks. They want to share their practices of
managing these kind of garden with you. We’ll join their monthly gardener meeting
at the garden « Jardin des Néréides » (Néréides being the name of the housing es-
tate). You’ll meet with Alexis, one of the staff of AMIEU, and the gardeners.
We’ll have lunch there, and take the afternoon to go on with our interviews
of all your projects and gardens, and share more practices withe AMIEU. We ‘ll be
able to have some computer projector there.
You’ll have a bit or free time in the afternoon (except for thos writing the
daily diary) but you’ll have to be at 19:00 in Pistes Solidaires, 67 La Canebière for a
public forum where we invited gardeners and garden staff from Marseille and the
other parts of RJSM to meet you. The aim is for you and them to exchange about
your activities. We plan session of photo and film projection, discusion groups, a
buffet of course and much more. This would also be the right time to go on reading
all the « good practices » already collected in the program… and why not complete
them with more information.

AMIEU:
Amieu stands for “L'ATELIER MARSEILLAIS d'INI-
TIATIVES en ECOLOGIE URBAINE” (more o less: work-
shop of urban ecology in Marseille). It is a non profit
organisation created in 1992. 80 members, among them
15 active volunteers, 4 paid staff. The idea is that if
somebody is not interested in the place where he/she
lived it may only be because she/he doesn’t now it. Amieu try to enrich the link between
inhabitants and their street/district/city. To learn about the history, geography and nature of
the place is the first step toward being active in its own environment and life.
Our projects thus lead us into using urban garden as a wonderful tool to involve people in
the life of their district, to better their close environment, and thus to better their life.
Jardin des Néréides:
Background: Requested by the city Council
Amieu began to work on awareness of forest fires (the
forest on the hills is quite close) with the school "école
des Néréïdes" and with the neighbourhood (district called "Bosquet et Néréïdes"). After
three years, the community garden was created in an attempt to involve the families in the
project. The Amieu also convinced Habitat 13, the social landlord, to accept social inclusion
projects on its territory. Today the forest fires have decreased significantly.
This garden opened February 15, 2009
Management of the garden:
Work with the group of gardeners: monthly meetings with the gardeners, organisation of
collective tasks (cleaning, planting, size of olives and olive gathering, festive events in the
gardens: meals, ...).
educational garden: every week our garden hostess welcomes several classes in the educa-
tional garden.
3 people of Amieu work about 2 days each week in that territory.
