3.5 km from the city center, it is an original and educational walk in the heart of the extraordinary diversity of cultivated and domesticated plants offered by the Luberon Regional Natural Park.

Its gardeners invite you to discover the diversity of fruits in a conservatory orchard of more than 400 varieties.

A permanent exhibition on the domestication of fruits and 8 terraced gardens at the foot of a beautiful Provencal country house will make you understand the millennium work of man to select and multiply the fruits adapted to the terroirs.

You will be guided along the water: from the garden of olive trees to the dry garden through the garden of roses, palmettes, wickers, fig trees and the vegetable garden forgotten vegetables.

You can enjoy an original water collection network (water mine), the temporary exhibition and all the amenities (picnic area...).

Possibility of shuttle bus in season (deposit 2km from the entrance).
