This is a simple and audacious programme : make us an edible garden welcoming insects. Obviously, those topics are moderns and triggered our enthusiasm.
The landscape identity of this housing project's front door is drawn by an orchad made of twelve varieties of apple trees and height varietes and species of small fruits. The background of this garden is made up of a five-stars insect hotel. This new place also offers the possibility to take a break or to play in the Orchad Garden where harvest and gleaning are offered to the walkers.
All those cultural technics that are implemented here brings us closer to the permaculture trends, especially by the redynamization of the soil microbial flora.
