Agriculture and Traditional Crafts
Today’s rural world is very different from that of centuries past. Whilst agriculture remains the driving force and an indelible feature of the Piège hills, the people and practices have changed. Following in the footsteps of Bertrand, the grocer from Mirepoix, this interpretive trail offers a dialogue between rural life today and in the past. You’ll learn more about the ‘traditional’ trades that once kept the heart of the countryside beating and the agriculture that still shapes the landscape.
