From "Jardins Familiaux" by Pete Russell (ooooby.ning.com/profiles/blogs/jardins-familiaux)

"During our recent visit to France we were introduced to the Jardins Familiaux (Family Gardens) by our hosts in Angers. It comprises of 120 plots of land. Much like the English Allotments, Jardins Familiaux are tended to by avid food gardeners fulfilling their passion amongst friends and family. The atmosphere was friendly and a great deal of love has been poured into these beautiful and abundant patches. The French really do know how to enjoy the slow food culture. So much so that I noticed a duo of neighbours savouring a bottle of red while watching their gardens grow."
