From Friday June 2 to Sunday June 4, 2023, Provençal agriculture in all its forms was once once more in the spotlight at the 6th edition of the Salon des Agricultures de Provence.
In total, more than 65,000 visitors walked the aisles of the show during these 3 days, placed this year under the sign of innovation. More than 250 exhibitors from the region were present to welcome the public in a popular, family and festive atmosphere.
A farmers’ market, tastings of local products, farm animals, around sixty entertainment and fun activities spread throughout the show, a French championship for arborist-climbers… There were some, this year once more, for all tastes and all ages.
Workshops and pedagogy
The MSA Provence Azur, partner of the event, once once more took part in this great agricultural festival by offering numerous workshops and events on its stand.
On the program over the 3 days: a workshop on the dangers associated with the consumption of alcohol and drugs; an educational workshop “Food balance” led by a nutritionist dietician; a workshop dedicated to building layout and design; MSA advisors to support members in their procedures and answer their questions; a tractor driving simulator; a culinary workshop for seniors…
