Educational farms offer a great idea for a family outing in search of nature and relaxation. Their mission is to educate young and old alike about farm life, respect for the environment and the rhythms of life. Here, you can discover farm animals in their natural environment, learn about the jobs of those who care for and feed them on a daily basis, and get hands-on with workshops on making, cooking and gardening. Evolving with the seasons, these farms offer a hands-on, fun and intergenerational learning experience, often complemented by special vacation activities.

Among the most popular are Ferme de Saint-Hilliers, offering activities based on sustainable agriculture, and Edentera , with its exotic animals... Ready for a family outing in the great outdoors?
