Farmers' Mornings: Discovering the Farm and Caring for Animals, Sundays at La Villette

We discovered them in July 2023, when the Ferme de la Villette, located in the eponymous park, opened its doors to the general public. From now on, the donkeys Quoquine and Lerminette, dwarf rabbits, chickens and other biquettes await children aged 3 to 10, to play at being budding farmers and learn all about the world of the farm.
