Anim'en Folie Car Boot Sale of Sèvremoine

Anim'en Folie Car Boot Sale in Sèvremoine

The Anim'en Folie association organizes its annual car boot sale in the territory of Sèvremoine (49230) every year, a vast new commune in Maine-et-Loire born in 2016 from the fusion of Saint-Macaire-en-Mauges, Saint-André-de-la-Marche, Torfou, La Renaudière, and Tillières. This car boot sale is one of the association's flagship events, a festive and popular moment eagerly awaited by the inhabitants of the Mauges bocage.

Private exhibitors set up their stalls filled with a multitude of items: clothing and accessories for all ages, wooden or plastic toys and games, books, comics, and magazines, records and cassettes, tableware and household items, tools and DIY equipment, trinkets, and decorative objects. Prices are very affordable, allowing for great savings while giving objects a second life.

The event is organized in a spirit of friendliness and celebration that characterizes the Anim'en Folie association, whose mission is to liven up the Sèvremoine territory throughout the year. Refreshments, food, and entertainment are often on the program to make this day a true local festive event.

Sèvremoine, a commune in the Mauges region

Sèvremoine (49230) is a new commune in Maine-et-Loire, resulting from the 2016 merger of five communes in the Mauges bocage. It is crossed by the Sèvre Nantaise river, which gave its name to the commune and marks the historical border between Anjou and Poitou. The commune has about 22,000 inhabitants and is part of the Mauges Communauté urban community.

The Mauges bocage is a landscape of hedges, meadows, and sunken lanes, preserved by local farmers. Sèvremoine is home to several remarkable heritage sites: the abbey of Solesmes-local dependency, old manor houses, and the Romanesque church of Saint-Macaire-en-Mauges. The commune is also known for its dynamic associations and sports activities.
