Autumn festival at Saint André farm

La Ferme de Découverte Saint André is hosting an autumn festival from October 17 to November 1, offering families a chance to enjoy seasonal activities centered around nature and creativity. The event includes various workshops and interactive experiences designed to bring visitors closer to the natural world.

Pumpkin decoration workshops

Children can participate in pumpkin decoration workshops at 2:30 PM and 3:30 PM each day. These workshops are new to the farm and are being offered to all families for the first time, marking a fresh addition to the farm's seasonal programming.

Workshops using natural materials

The workshops use materials directly sourced from the farm and the season, including straw, feathers, wool from the sheep, seeds, and horsehair. This approach emphasizes the use of local and natural resources, creating a hands-on and educational experience for participants.

Free and accessible for all

The pumpkin decoration workshops are free of charge, aiming to make the experience more accessible and to encourage shared family time. The organizers hope that families will leave with not only decorated pumpkins but also warm, joyful memories created together.

Additional festival activities

Beyond the pumpkin workshops, the festival includes opportunities to interact with animals, such as bottle-feeding sessions for kids and lambs at 11:30 AM and 4:30 PM. There are also giant wooden games to encourage laughter and cooperation, and a food truck offering meals and snacks to extend the day in a friendly atmosphere.

Entry fees and practical details

The festival runs from October 17 to November 1. Entry fees are 11 € for adults, 9 € for children aged 2 to 13, and free for those under 2 years old. Pumpkin workshops are free and require on-site registration.
