March 31 was the highlight for the Michelet garden which through the official opening becomes the Agrocité , namely the first of three R-Urban project sites in Colombes. There were present were all the actors involved in the project : aaa (the coordinator), the elected officials of the Municipality of Colombes (the partners), Ms. Dubois, representative of the European program LIFE + for environmental governance, and of course the inhabitants of Colombes. This event has allowed aaa to explain the place of the Michelet site already invested by the people since early 2012, the network R-Urban in Colombes, and to show the development of the project, including the ecological prototypes presented: test system of compost heating , and a aquaponics device. The representatives of the Colombes Municipality have meanwhile confirmed their support and investment in the project. Apart from these known partners, the inauguration was the occasion of a small exhibition of local actors, which are already invested or that could take part into the R-Urban project. Attendees were able to discover the backyard of the Farm of Happiness , from Nanterre, vermicomposting explained by Yvon of Nature-Ecology (located in La Garenne-Colombes). The Wild Gardens of Audra , geographically very close to the Agrocité, were also represented, as potential actors in the R-Urban network. Finally, Extramuros Gennevilliers, and the Belgian Rotor , explained more fully the work they are undertaking in the reuse of materials, as part of the Eco-Commun# 3 to CSC Fosses Jean.
