Trois Petits Pois is a diversified market gardening project on one hectare located on the heights of Liège, between Vottem and Herstal. On a former football field that has become a meadow, the team is transforming this fertile plot into an agroecological farm. Since May 2024, thanks to the Créafarm call for projects from the City of Liège, they have had this land for ten renewable years.
Their model is based on a pick-your-own CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) system. For an annual fee, subscribers will harvest more than 50 varieties of vegetables, aromatics, fruit and medicinal trees from April 2025. No chemicals are used, with total respect for the environment.
The team is made up of Marie, Michèle and Nicolas, passionate about sustainable agriculture and human relations. Their objective: to produce healthy food, protect biodiversity, transmit knowledge, and build links with residents.
The land is landscaped to optimize resources and well-being: greenhouses, growing beds, ecological irrigation system and various plantations to nourish biodiversity. Ultimately, 126 market gardening boards will be put into production, with a target of 80 subscribers in 2025.
Financing, entirely self-financed so far, is a challenge. A collection campaign will finance a water pump, solar panels, a shelter, and agricultural equipment. Each additional euro will make it possible to develop educational spaces, a pond, or even a mini-golf course for young and old.
Crowdfunding, with compensation, was therefore launched. The first level of €3,600 is almost reached. To participate, click here.
