During the weekend of All Saints, a range of activities are on offer to visitors. From flower arranging workshops to tastings of seasonal products from the estate’s vegetable garden, all the senses are treated.

Staging

Coloquintes and Cucurbitaceae vie with each other by their shapes and colours, scattered amongst the seasonal vegetables to create visual ‘paintings’ just for this occasion. A feast for the eyes!

Seasonal flowers

Appreciate the final flowers of the year, which flood the park with their warm colours. It’s a true celebration of the beauty of autumn.

At the bend of the promenade, the richness and depth of red, orange and gold propel us into a flamboyant world.
Face the winter with a warm heart!
