Der Pépiterre

Explore and Enjoy:

Freely wander through the association's garden (accessible during shop hours) and savor a refreshing beverage.

Delve into the artisanal boutique, where you'll find an array of creations from around twenty local artisans and producers.

Engage in a knowledge-sharing workshop for both children and adults.

Witness Special Events:

With a bit of luck, you might catch an agricultural event (spring festival, apple pressing), a cultural performance, the Christmas market, or the potters' market (co-organized with Argile Bretagne).

The Pépiterre Mission:

The Pépiterre association aims to facilitate the establishment of project leaders seeking to develop environmentally friendly professional activities in the agricultural and artisanal sectors on the Rhuys Peninsula.

Success Stories:

Since its inception in 2017, around twenty professionals have passed through La Pépiterre and are now established on the peninsula or in the Vannes region.

Current Residents:

Today, a dozen or so professionals are based at the site to test and/or develop their activities. They cultivate, raise, create, and transmit their knowledge and expertise.

Collective Efforts:

Accompanied by a joyful team of volunteers, these professionals also bring this unique place to life! Collective workdays are organized every last Saturday of the month from 10 am to 5 pm throughout the year. These sessions contribute to event preparation and the maintenance of the several-hectare site, encompassing both the public-access zone and the area reserved for professionals. Join in!

Year-Round Activities:

Workshops and Courses:

Passionate professionals share their knowledge through workshops and courses throughout the year. Discover and refine techniques like weaving, paper crafts, plant care, and more.

Introductory Workshops:

Offered during each school vacation period (all zones included), these workshops provide opportunities to explore pottery, cyanotype, engraving, weaving, plants, dyeing, writing, and more.

Special Events:

Enjoy a gratiferia, spring festival, Christmas market, children's shows, theater, and illustrated talks.
