In pictures. Gascon-language entertainment to launch the season of the local producers' markets in Mont-de-Marsan

On Friday, June 6, the esplanade of the Montoise arenas was enlivened all day by Ahuecats, an event promoting Gascon culture among schoolchildren, then by visitors to the Country Producers' Market in the evening.

The ingredients for a successful Farmers' Market are well-known: good local produce, large tables filled with people happy to be together, mild weather, and a buzz to keep the moment coming back. On Friday, June 6, 2025, in Mont-de-Marsan, for the first of 62 markets organized throughout the summer by the Bienvenue à la ferme network, a national brand owned by the Permanent Assembly of Chambers of Agriculture (APCA), everything was there.
