À la rencontre de...

Thomas Leleu and Sandrine Leleu Leconte live in the hamlet of Pouget, in the heart of the Cévennes National Park, in the commune of Pourcharesses.

They produce vegetables that they process and sell locally in stores, as well as at home, in particular to the tenants of the gîtes they offer for rent.

We have been in business for 3 years installed here all year round but we have been coming here for 35 years. Eand then à a moment givena desire to change my life. Eand then here isàwe arriveds here and we don't regret it! We feel the desire and the need to be part of a collective.

Chis kind of place calls for working together, the living together, and it is in this sense that we were interested to have made the request National park spirit. They help us to respect the traditions, to want to respect even more what is there, to value the territory as a whole.

Because what motivates us is indeed to preserve this place and make it live, but to make it live is to welcome people, it is not to live there all alone. There is no point in living there alone.
