Shuttle Tour

Meet at one of the seven orchards of Maison Gannac, never before open to the public. In the peak citrus season, it is adorned with flamboyant colors. It’s a unique experience that Maison Gannac offers.

For a morning or an afternoon, Laurent Gannac, head of cultivation and co-founder of Maison Gannac, or Adrien Gannac, son of Laurent, co-founder of Maison Gannac and creator of delicacies, share with you their knowledge and passion for citrus fruits, especially the Menton IGP Lemon.

Maison Gannac invites you to discover the cultivation of citrus fruits in Menton. During the workshop, you will be able to pick and take home one kilogram of citrus fruits (to be determined according to the season) in a Maison Gannac screen-printed cotton bag.

As the orchards are steep, don’t forget to wear good shoes! The workshop is strongly discouraged for people with reduced mobility.

The workshop is followed by a tasting of our fine grocery range in the downtown store located at 10 Saint-Michel Street.

The course is organized into six parts:

  • The cultivation of citrus fruits in the world, in France, in Menton, and at Maison Gannac (historical presentation)
  • Cultivation in the open ground (conditions, method, plants, pests...)
  • Discovery of citrus fruits in the orchard
  • Questions/Answers
  • Picking supervised by Laurent Gannac or Adrien Gannac
  • Tasting of our fine grocery range
