The village of Langouët in Brittany, northern France, is well on the way to energy autonomy and is aiming for food self-sufficiency, too. This community of 600 inhabitants is home to a whole host of green projects, designed to meet these objectives: since 2004, a canteen that serves 100% organic and local produce; passive social housing; a hamlet of “kitchen-garden houses”; a garden used for teaching permaculture; a community café; a solar power plant; an activity hub focused on the social and solidarity economy; a shared electric car… All of this in the last 20 years thanks to the dedication and vision of Daniel Cueff, who has been mayor of Langouët since 1999.
