CRABE

Le CRABE is an NGO that works in different fields ranging from the management of pedestrian rural roads to trainings in organic farming. It offers a one year programme for new farmers who both learn theoretical and practical aspects of organic farming. The school strongly promotes horticultural systems and small livestock farms. It has responded to a growing interest in short supply systems towards which more and more new entrants orient their projects.
