Fruit tree plants - Aphaïa Nature

Arboriculturist Alexandre Racanière has set up a collection orchard. Some forty varieties of apples, fifteen pears, persimmons, plums, cherries and a dozen quinces are grown in this orchard, as well as on terraces in other communes.

In addition to fresh and processed fruit, Alexandre also sells fruit plants. Around 1,500 are grafted and a third are sold at autumn fairs. Since 2016, in parallel with his activities, he has been running grafting and pruning courses via the Terres Arboricoles Cévenoles association, and teaching arboriculture at theCentre de formation professionnelle et de promotion agricoles (CFPPA) du Gard.
