Le Freney-d'Oisans. AFPa de Sarenne: The herds have "moved upward"

After spending the winter in the Bouches du-Rhone, the Groupement pastoral de la Romanche herd has returned to its summer quarters, under the supervision and care of Baptiste, the shepherd. He is accompanied by his protection and working dogs. The sheep will be grazing in the area around Le Puy for a few more weeks. Their presence will limit the invasion of shrubs that can close off the landscape, and thus will contribute to the overall maintenance of the sector. The shepherd will then lead the herd to Col de Cluy. Christian Pichoud (mayor) and the AFPa Sarenne office visited the shepherd to support him and assist with the setting up the drinking troughs. They also discussed tapping the water supply, which will soon be available to garden owners at Les Choulieres. The concert of cowbells was a success.
