Cut by National Road 162, the forest will be neighbours to the Bigottière estate and its 19th-century castle. The land is divided into three plots, one on the top of a hill with a northeast-facing slope and another on the west bank of the Pont Martin stream. There are two beautiful ponds with splendid den trees and a wetland. The flora mainly consists of [Ash](/en/species/11), Common Oak, Norway Maple and Sycamore Maple, Herb-Robert Geranium, Cleaver, Hawthorn and [Wild cherry](/en/species/12). We plan to add more plantations to the area.

In the years following the planting season, we will implement all actions related to our sustainable forest development: protection of the saplings with a natural repellent [Trico](https://ecotree.green/en/blog/how-to-protect-trees-with-trico-a-natural-animal-repellent), clearing of competing vegetation, supplementary planting if necessary, followed by first thinnings and development of access roads.
