Since 2007, Nathalie & Hervé Couston have been passionately growing Crocus sativus organically in the Enclave des Papes region of Visan, and now invite you to discover Safran d'ICI.

From vines to saffron... ‘It grows where vines grow’ – this phrase, heard on a programme about this spice, convinced us to plant it HERE in Visan.
Saffron cultivation requires the same terroir as vines: stony soil that drains well!
Saffron comes from a very fragile purple flower.
It is picked every day for three weeks from late October to early November.
Harvesting and pruning require long and meticulous work, done entirely by hand.
Find us:
From April to September at the Grignan market on Tuesday mornings,
at markets organised by the association ‘A la Rencontre des Artisans’
From mid-November to mid-March at the Richerenches Truffle Market on Saturday mornings
