Association Grain et Sens

Grain&Sens is an ecovillage that was created in 2018 with the ambition of creating a multicultural
and bilingual project where people can share spaces, equipment, land and knowledge, aiming at the
preservation of natural resources. The ecovillage is managed by the association, Grain&Sens, which
promotes actions and activities which care for the local environment and community and connect to
a global context
Grain&Sens is based in a domain: The Lavenant estate, located at an altitude of 750m. It is cradled in lush greenery, surrounded by 20 hectares of forest and prairies. There are independent spaces for each family and inhabitant, and communal spaces to welcome groups and camps. Beautiful nature surrounds the inhabitants who have adopted a lifestyle with low environmental impact.
The main activities and training courses happening on site focus on education for sustainable development. Training courses offered on-site bring people together from France and Europe to share knowledge and co-create.
