The Réseau Compost Citoyen works to place community composting at
the heart of organic waste management. A national network bringing
together associations and local authorities around sustainable and
community-minded practices.
The Verger Conservatoire de Pétré is committed to preserving, promoting
and sharing local fruit tree genetic heritage. A wonderful initiative
protecting the varietal biodiversity of our Vendée region.
The Association for the Promotion of Sustainable Agriculture advocates
for farming practices that respect soil health and the environment —
perfectly aligned with our values of composting and organic recycling.
The Vendée Grand Littoral community of communes supports local
environmental and sustainable development initiatives. Their backing
enables us to roll out shared composting sites across the whole territory.
The municipality of Grosbreuil has been our local partner since the
association was founded in 2009. The town provides sites for our shared
composting locations and supports our awareness-raising activities
among residents.
A Grosbreuil-based roofing and waterproofing contractor, D.C.E shares
our commitment to the local area and the common good. This neighbour

initiative right here in the village.
