Forest and Wood Festival
A celebration of forests and timber at the Château de la Bourdaisière
2026
About Forest and Wood Festival
Every autumn, the 55-hectare grounds of the Château de la Bourdaisière host the Forest and Wood Festival, organized in partnership with France Bois Forêt. Horse-drawn loggers, chainsaw sculptors, and carpenters demonstrate their crafts to the public, while foresters from the National Forestry Office lead guided walks beneath the estate's canopy.
The event is designed for both timber industry professionals and families alike: wooden games, archery, land art workshops, and storytelling walks keep children entertained, while adults can browse craft stalls and attend lectures on sustainable forest management.
