Every May, the APEA (Association des Parents d'Élèves et Amis) of Moisdon-la-Rivière organizes its annual car boot sale on Rue d'Aval. This spring event brings together local exhibitors and visitors in a friendly atmosphere, true to the spirit of mutual aid and solidarity that characterizes parent-teacher associations. The detail that makes the difference: coffee is offered to all exhibitors, a warm gesture that perfectly illustrates the hospitality of the volunteer organizers.
Moisdon-la-Rivière is a rural commune in the Loire-Atlantique department, in the Châteaubriant region. Its name evokes the river — the Don — that flows through its hedged countryside. This land of hedges, ponds, and forests is one of the most preserved areas of Loire-Atlantique, bordering Maine-et-Loire and Ille-et-Vilaine. The village of Moisdon-la-Rivière has an endearing rural atmosphere, with its local shops, school, and active community life.
Parent-teacher associations play an essential role in the school life of small rural communities. In Moisdon-la-Rivière, the APEA is involved beyond direct support to the school by organizing events open to the entire community. The annual car boot sale is one of its flagship activities: it generates funds for school projects (outings, equipment, parties) while creating a moment of meeting and conviviality for all the inhabitants of the commune and surrounding villages.
Pitches are offered at €6.50 for 2.5 linear meters, a reasonable price for an event in a rural area. The unique feature of this car boot sale is the attention paid to exhibitors: coffee is included in the registration fee, offered by APEA volunteers. This small gesture reflects a genuine concern for hospitality and friendliness, typical of rural associations in Loire-Atlantique that know how to create strong human connections with their participants.
Rue d'Aval, the main street of Moisdon-la-Rivière, provides a village setting for this car boot sale. In May, the vegetation of the surrounding countryside is at its spring peak: the hedges are green, the meadows are in bloom, and the air is filled with the scents of renewal. This exceptional natural setting in the Châteaubriant region helps make the APEA car boot sale a pleasant and memorable event for all its participants.
The APEA car boot sale returns in May 2026, Rue d'Aval, Moisdon-la-Rivière. €6.50/2.5m with coffee offered to exhibitors by the association's volunteers.
