Guided visit

The kitchen garden of old varieties

Sunday 4 September 2022, 14:00

Discover a special kitchen garden where the vegetables are old and rare.

This is where the gardeners of the CJBG sow more and more old local varieties in order to maintain and perpetuate them. Discover these forgotten vegetables and the techniques of seed multiplication.

Sunday Visits
On the 1st Sunday of the month, from April to December
Extend your Sunday stroll to take in the Botanical Conservatory and Gardens of Geneva and choose one or other (or both) of the visits organised on the 1st Sunday of every month. Your guide will be a botanist, horticulturist or researcher and you will discover the many different facets of your “museum”. Meet at 2 p.m. and/or 3.30 p.m. precisely, depending on the visit you have chosen, at the main entrance to the CJBG.
These visits also take place on public holidays (May Day, Whit).
