About agriculture in Castellane

Located in the heart of the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, Castellane is a picturesque town situated at the entrance to the famous Verdon Gorge. The surrounding rural landscape is characterized by rugged limestone mountains, high plateaus, and the turquoise waters of the Verdon River. This alpine setting provides a diverse environment where wild nature meets managed mountain pastures and cultivated fields.

Agriculture in this region is primarily focused on mountain farming and traditional Provençal products. High-altitude lavender fields and aromatic herbs are common, alongside significant livestock farming, particularly sheep and goats that graze on the alpine meadows. The area is also known for its high-quality honey production and small-scale farms producing local cheeses and seasonal mountain crops.

Farm workers and agronomists visiting Castellane can expect seasonal opportunities tied to the lavender harvest and the livestock cycle. Positions often include help with herding, maintenance of mountain pastures, and honey harvesting during the summer months. The work is physically demanding due to the mountainous terrain, but it offers a unique experience in one of France's most scenic agricultural regions.
