Eco-responsible practices with the installation of beehives at the château
Sensitive to the protection of our environment, we want to promote local craftsmanship. We have therefore chosen to produce our honeyin collaboration with a local beekeeper. In 2021, to enrich the park’s biodiversity, Château de la Plinguetière, in association with Manon, “apicultrice” and creator of the Le Miel est une fleur brand, has installed two beehives that you can see in the forest. Manon accompanies us throughout the year to take care of the bees. In early 2022, we were able to harvest the fruit of their labor: a sweet and light summer honey.
To taste our honey, go to the reception of the domain!
Our sheep
Two sheep can be seen in the meadow at the edge of the wood.
Originally from the island of Ouessant in Brittany, these hardy sheep are the smallest in the world!
By helping to cut the grass, they are making their contribution to our eco-responsible approach.
