Rehabilitation and development of a natural site into a floral park and educational leisure garden with a concern of environmental management
Fascinated of flora and nature, Christiane has dedicated her talents to the creation of this magic garden, real initiatory and educational discovery of the Guadelupian vegetation.
Everything is fitted out in the same respect for the site and for the ecosystem. Materials are natural and coming from the property. The waters of ponds and puddles, once recycled, irrigate plantations. Essences are chosen with care among plants native of the island.
One even can taste products, the lobsters with blue claws and the Koï carps grown in ponds and which can be fished and eaten on the spot. From the husbandry, the guest will also be able to acquire plants of garden and water produced on the spot.
A poetic route that is of use of excuse to the broadcasting of a message of protection and respect for the Guadelupian nature
Christiane abounds in ideas which have all for object to get people to know and appreciate Guadelupian nature, traditions and legends.
Walking freely in the park is a constant interpellation. The crying rock incites to lend oath and to read a poem dedicated to the nature. Maman D’LO's home, the mysterious princess of the realm allows to discover one of the most long-lived legends in the tradition of the tales of the Caribbean.
The garden is a meeting place privileged for the Creole families, on weekends.
It welcomes besides several events directed to the sensitization of the population in the respect for the water and for the environment: nature "fête", reading of Antilles writers texts, spectacles of dance by the river Rose.
School groups are also welcome.
