Last month, the Chastagnas honey house hosted the celebration of the Bee School's 10th anniversary, an event highlighting the transmission of beekeeping knowledge.

In the presence of Marion Houetz, President of the Ardèche des Sources et Volcans community of communes, Lynda Bouet, Vice-President in charge of agriculture, and Agnès Audigier, Vice-President and Mayor of Burzet, along with elected officials and local stakeholders, this anniversary day honored ten years of passion for beekeeping.
The program for this festive day included a gingerbread-making workshop, guided tours to discover the fascinating life of bees, a honey extraction demonstration, and opportunities for exchange among participants.
The Ardèche des Sources et Volcans community of communes financially supports the Maison de Vallée association, thus reaffirming its commitment to initiatives for training, transmission, and environmental awareness.
A big thank you was extended to the Maison de Vallée, the trainers, volunteers, partners, and all participants who have kept the Bee School alive for the past ten years.
