Herboretum

Scientists regularly come to The Herboretum to make an inventory and count the plant and animal species present on the estate, as true indicators of biodiversity.
These inventories are very precious to evaluate the evolution of biodiversity.

The 5 Faunistic Observatories


The Bees Island

5 beehives have been installed to house bees colonies. These pollinating insects are indispensable to harvest the many fruits of the orchard.
A « bees’ meadow » has been planted to provide them with a diversified source of food and may be a survival as to day bees are exposed to massive extinctions.
