On Sunday 24 May 2026 (Pentecost), "Le Bio s'invite à St Léo" and nature is in the spotlight in Saint-Léonard-des-Bois!

On Sunday 24 May, it's all organic in Saint-Léo! The Friends of Saint-Léonard are organising their traditional Fête de la Nature, with 50 exhibitors from fields as varied as food, herbalism, market gardening, arts and crafts and well-being! The Fête de la Nature des Alpes Mancelles has become a not-to-be-missed event in the Sarthe, with a strong theme around the discovery of wild and aromatic plants and their uses! It's a joyous day celebrating nature, organic produce and traditional skills. Stroll between the stands, discover edible and medicinal wild plants with enthusiasts, taste delicious organic products, and enjoy a friendly atmosphere in the heart of the Alpes Mancelles. You'll also be able to meet professionals and volunteers working in the fields of environmental protection, consumer protection and good ecological practice.
