About Tulipes en Val-ès-Dunes

The association "Tulipes en Val ès Dunes" was founded in 2022 with the aim of raising funds to support the fight against cancer. Every year, it organizes the planting of thousands of tulips on land kindly provided by a farmer. The bulbs are then sold to the public, and the profits are donated to the Baclesse Center.

By the end of 2023, over 51,000 bulbs had been planted. Picking began on March 19, 2024, and ended on April 13. Eleven pickings were carried out, with an average of 2,000 to 6,000 tulips per picking.

A successful campaign, thanks to the energy and commitment of the association's members, and the hundreds of volunteers involved!
