The project invites individual gardeners to commit to 10 points (the use of pesticides, space for butterflies, late reaping, compost, restricted use of lighting at night, etc.) in order to encourage the observation and rediscovery of butterflies and biodiversity, and initiate a change in behaviour in the garden, in favour of the environment. Gardeners who fully commit become Butterfly Ambassadors and receive personalized follow-up. Awareness raising operations are also planed, to promote responsible, ecologically friendly gardening practices to a variety of audiences.
