ART"CROCHE-TOI : L'envol

On 20-21-22nd of July 2012 the village of Bargemon celebrates Art & Creativity. An initiative of a group of artists in Bargemon who have been preparing the artistic event for some weeks now. Paintings, sculptures and installations which have been co-created with the people of the village will decorate squares and walls. Multiple art ateliers will be set up in the village and every one is invited to join and express their creativity. 

The theme this year is L'envol which means The take-off. 

The lake St Croix is about one hour by car from Mas Kailash.  Situated at the entrance of the Grand canyon du Verdon the turquoise lake offers spectacular vistas. The Castle of Aiguines in the forground watches out over this blue pearl. www.saintecroixduverdon.com  

Salad from our garden. Arugula, mesclun, nasturtiums and violets with a sprinkling of lentil sprouts! Does it get any better?

A few weeks ago we started our vegetable garden. With lots af sun and a fair amount of rain it is doing great. Even though we're novices at gardening, we had a good initiation for our start-up in April when our daughter was here. Love and gratitude. Hers was a "busgirl's holiday" you might say. She is usually at play in the fields of www.greenstringfarm.com in California. 

She also introduced us to the new hex-hive for bees. But more about that one in a hext - I mean next - blogspot. A plus!
