A few days before the opening of the Agricultural Show, the Confédération paysanne decided to take the opposite approach. The union calls on its members to open the doors of their farms to hold a farm fair.

Locals, tourists, elected officials or farmers are invited to visit the farms. “The idea is to put things back in the right direction and not at all to go back to the candle. Just to rediscover a bit of peasant common sense,” explains farmer Julien Tallec.
