For sale: A human-scale market gardening operation, developed with care and respect for the living world, on 2.15 hectares of fully fenced agricultural land. The sandy-loam soil is certified Organic Farming (ab) by Ecocert.
The farm includes a 103 m2 house, offering on the ground floor a living room, a dining room, a lounge, a bathroom, and a separate toilet. Upstairs, a large landing serves two bedrooms. Heating is provided economically by an air/water heat pump, which also produces the hot water. All windows are PVC double-glazed, and the roof is well insulated. A barn is attached to the house, along with a few small outbuildings.
Production is spread across 3,000 m2 of open field and 1,000 m2 under cover, in four greenhouses measuring 9.3 x 26.5 m, plus a dedicated nursery greenhouse (8 x 11.5 m). This nursery is a real asset: The operation grows 100% of its own plants, from reproducible seed, across a highly diversified range of nearly 70 species - a valuable independence that ensures both quality, resilience, and self-sufficiency in production.
The soil is nurtured year after year: 30 tonnes of 100% plant-based compost and 500 kg of volcanic rock dust are applied annually, as part of a rigorous rotation across twelve plots (minimum rotation of one in six), combined with permanent beds and simplified cultivation techniques. This agronomic approach builds lasting fertility and a living soil structure.
Irrigation is handled by an efficient drip system (three lines per bed), complemented in the greenhouses by two sprinkler lines covering the entire surface. Water comes from a well feeding a 700 m3 geomembrane reservoir, with the resource available from September through May inclusive.
The farm also includes uncultivated meadows maintained through staggered mowing, which supports biodiversity, as well as a small wooded plot. There is room for further development for those wishing to diversify the activity: Small fruit, and aromatic and medicinal plants (ppam) are all possible avenues alongside the market garden.
The business benefits from an already-established customer base and outlets, selling exclusively through short supply chains: Several weekly markets, seasonal gourmet markets, and partnerships with restaurants. The buyer will also have the option to take over the various equipment currently in place, allowing for a smooth transition and immediate continuation of the activity.
A rare opportunity for anyone dreaming of taking over a structured, self-sufficient organic market garden farm with established markets - paired with a comfortable, energy-efficient home.
