The Mont-Saint-Martin neighborhood in Nemours buzzed with activity on Saturday, October 3rd, for its eco-citizen day, featuring practical workshops and resident engagement for their environment and quality of life.

On Saturday, October 3rd, the Mont-Saint-Martin neighborhood hosted its traditional eco-citizen day, an event dedicated to concrete action for the local environment and living space. The day was filled with various workshops and activities, offering participants the chance to engage in initiatives such as setting up a temporary waste sorting center, neighborhood clean-up with the association Al Anwar, composting, sewing, energy saving, and bicycle repair.
This initiative also served as a prime opportunity to give objects a second life, adopt good ecological practices, and share everyday tips. The presence of Mayor Valérie Lacroute, accompanied by the Prefect's delegate, Michael Maleappa, and elected officials Charlotte Vaillot (security, urban policy, and local life) and Patrick Gouret (ecological transition, living environment, and animal welfare), underscored the importance of this civic event. They were able to engage directly with the residents present.
The city of Nemours warmly thanks all participants, partners, and municipal services who contributed to the success of this day, making this gathering a useful and friendly moment in the heart of the neighborhood.
