Jardins Partagés d'Uzès au Mas Careiron

The shared garden is a green space where local residents learn and pass on the art of growing vegetables and fruit.
It's a place to learn about eco-gardening, run by an association representing local players: residents, institutions and associations.

It is open to all, without discrimination. Its aim is to provide a meeting place for different generations and cultures.

Located within the "Mas Careiron" hospital complex, the plot made available by the hospital covers an area of around 2,000 m2. Protected from the wind by the surrounding buildings and trees, it offers arable land and is also an invitation to relax. We've named it "The Orchard".

This space is made up of a communal plot, the "shared garden", surrounded by individual or associative plots known as "Camille's gardens".

The general principles of the garden are :

- Improving living conditions through sharing, solidarity, living well together, respect for others, for each other's work and for the earth.

- Strengthening social ties, intergenerational links and promoting social diversity.

- Raising awareness of environmental protection and ecological education.

- Governance: collegial decision-making, transparency, consent, responsibility for all.
