INTERVIEW
At the head of the show Thalassa France 3 since 2017, Fanny Agostini decided to embark on another adventure, with her husband, Henri Landes. The goal? Reconnecting humans with nature, as she details in Standing up friends!
"Reconnect city dwellers to the earth"
It is in Haute-Loire, in Boisset, that Fanny Agostini decided to settle down and create an educational farm. "This is a place where I grew up," says the journalist, "a department where the naturalness is fabulous, it hit me in the heart". A region passed through the cracks of intensive agriculture, according to the facilitator, "because it is an extremely hilly department, with little extension". With her pedagogic farm, Fanny Agostini wants to "reconnect city dwellers to the land". "It goes through an education through food for the youth," she says, adding "food is a way to reconnect with nature."
"Preservation of the living"
The educational farm of Fanny Agostini, which is also a foundation, also develops other lines of work. "Job creation in the field of preservation of life," says the journalist. "We are setting up incubators that will support start-ups on the environment," she adds. A bet on the future in the eyes of the host: "the jobs of tomorrow will have to create new economic models to restore the environment and not to squander it".
