Ferme pédagogique de la Matarelle

The Matarelle educational farm is a learning facility in Laurabuc with animals, cultivation areas, and gardens spread across spacious grounds. The property displays various animal species and features paths that lead through farming and garden sections.

The farm was founded more than 15 years ago as a place to teach people about nature and farming. Since then, it has grown into an important learning center in the Aude region.

The farm keeps alive traditional farming ways of the Lauragais region through dedicated paths and working demonstrations that visitors can observe. These practices shape how the land is used and cared for by the people who live and work here.

The facility is open Tuesday through Sunday with different hours depending on the season - longer opening times during school holidays and shorter ones in regular periods. Visitors should prepare for outdoor activities and wear proper footwear for walking the many paths.

A plant maze covering about 3 hectares invites visitors to get lost and explore its twisting paths. Alongside it sits a garden designed specifically for the senses, where different scents spark curiosity and teach about local plant life.
