Management and maintenance of urban vegetable gardens and biodiversity in the Mont d'Ehden district

Context and objective

The Mont d’Ehden neighborhood, located on Route de Chailly in La Tour-de-Peilz, comprises twenty housing units spread across ten twin villas, combining architectural quality, modern comfort, and respect for the environment. Close to the urban centers of Montreux and Vevey, this project benefits from an ideal location with a strong community spirit and sustainable commitment.

The site features three shared urban vegetable gardens, accessible to all residents. Légumes Perchés is supporting the launch and managing and maintaining these gardens, thus promoting conviviality, biodiversity, and responsible urban agriculture within the neighborhood.

The solution implemented

Our vegetable garden management and maintenance service was designed to offer a simple, sustainable, and turnkey solution to all structures wishing to integrate a growing space. After a custom design, we install gardens adapted to the available space, enriched with perennial plants and natural mulch. Once the vegetable garden is in place, our annual support service takes over: we provide three participatory workshops with residents (sowing, maintenance, harvesting). We also manage registrations and the waiting list, so that everything is seamless and effortless for the site manager. The result: a vibrant, beautiful, and productive vegetable garden all year round, a true support for social connection and ecological transition, without ever falling into neglect.
