Gratiferia of Thorigné-Fouillard

The Gratiferia, everything is free

Every last Saturday of the month, the Ressourcerie d'Aneth in Thorigné-Fouillard organizes its (all) Free Parking, a free zone inspired by the gratiferia movement. The principle is radical and generous: all items are offered for free. Clothes, books, furniture, toys, games, and everyday objects find a last chance before being recycled. Visitors come to help themselves freely, with no obligation to buy or reciprocate.

The Ressourcerie d'Aneth, a player in reuse

The Ressourcerie d'Aneth, located at 2b avenue de Bellevue in Thorigné-Fouillard (35235), is a place committed to reuse and the circular economy. Open from Monday to Saturday, it collects, sorts, and resells second-hand items at low prices throughout the year. The monthly Gratiferia complements this approach by offering a solidarity solution for items that haven't found a taker. It's a gesture that is both ecological and social, reducing waste and allowing everyone to access useful items.

A solidarity and friendly gathering

The Gratiferia of Thorigné-Fouillard attracts a diverse audience: families, students, retirees, upcycling enthusiasts, and zero-waste activists. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, reflecting the spirit of the Aneth association that supports this project. The opening hours are from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. and 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. on the last Saturday of the month. A unique event of its kind in the east of the Rennes metropolitan area.
