'Between Heaven and Earth' Nature Garden

Originally planted in the 1930’s, the garden remained unaddressed from 2000 until 2005. It was then that we started to develop it into a garden both for practical human use and for the local wildlife.

The following convictions influenced the design of the garden:

The urgent need to protect biodiversity in France, particularly in our gardens

The need to establish a practical link between the environment of Tourades and our local environment, La Vallée des Baux.

Landscapers Klass-Hemke Meekeren, Pieter Voets and Sophie Tron designed a garden allowing:

Its adaptation to the needs of the centre’s inhabitants, at all times minimizing its ecological footprint.

The creation of wildlife habitats, whilst simultaneously considering aesthetics and design.
