Presentation
The gourmet market at the Ferme de la Fradouillère
Imagine yourself at the end of a sunny day, between the
sea and the countryside
at the
Moutiers-en-Retz
market. The air is mild, and it's the perfect time to share an aperitif on the terrace or a freshly prepared dinner with
local produce
. Just the thing, on Mondays in summer, several producers are on hand at the Ferme de la Fradouillère gourmet market from 5pm to 8pm!
Fresh local produce for you to enjoy
Pass from one stall to another and let yourself be tempted by the
delights of the land
, from the heady aromas of
Domaine des Sylphes
wines to the creamy ice creams and sorbets of
Délices de l'Air Marin
. It's decided, tonight it's going to be spreads, sheep's milk cheeses and charcuterie accompanied by a good glass of local wine... (to be drunk in moderation). And don't forget dessert: yoghurt ice cream with a red fruit coulis from
Petits Fruits de la Baie
. There's no better way to cool off
Entertainment for young and old
While you're sampling the
specialities
of our local producers, the little ones can enjoy pony
rides offered by the Centre hippique de la Mer. There's also a mini-farm where you can meet the animals of the countryside.
Discover
Pornic and its colourful local markets
In the height of summer, as soon as the first rays of sunshine appear,
fresh
produce and local crafts take over the stalls in
Pornic
. One thing's for sure, there's no shortage of markets in this pretty town on the Côte de Jade...
On Wednesday and Saturday mornings, you'll find fresh local produce at the
Birochère and Sainte-Marie-sur-Mer markets
. On Thursday and Sunday mornings, don't miss the one in Pornic. You'll also find a host of producers and artisans lining the quays along the old port on Tuesday and Saturday evenings in summer: a unique opportunity to stroll between the stalls while enjoying the lively atmosphere of the old town.
Our favourite :
The Pornic market, of course: a historic landmark and a must-see for
food lovers
! At the heart of the market, the
Halles
de Pornic is a charming building dating back to 1609. Completely renovated in 2000, the stalls are now open only on market days, making them a must-see if you want to discover this Pornic jewel.
In addition to the convivial Halles, Pornic's market extends into the narrow streets and onto the Place de la Terrace in summer. It's a real ode to local flavours, with a wide selection of fresh produce from local producers.
Go for it
Sunshine for your taste buds : the Ferme de la Fontaine market is waiting for you !
Summer is setting in, and with it the gourmet pleasures of open-air markets. The
Ferme de la Fontaine
invites you to enjoy an authentic and friendly experience every Thursday evening in July and August, from 5pm to 8pm.
Fresh, tasty produce
The Ferme de la Fontaine market is above all a unique opportunity to meet local producers. Passionate and generous, they'll share their
know-how
with you and reveal the secrets of their exceptional products. As well as the delicious summer fruit and vegetables
on offer at the Ecodomaine, you'll find fruit, berries and syrups from Les petits fruits de la baie, seaweed spreads from
Echos Nature
, spirulina from the
Cabane à Spiruline
and craft beer from
d'Ici l'aurore brewery
A moment to relax and share with the family
Take advantage of the
refreshment area
to enjoy a cool drink with friends or family. Meanwhile, the little ones can enjoy the wooden games or come and say hello to the pigs, geese, hens, guinea pigs, rabbits... all freely accessible in the Eco-domaine micro-farm.
