Car boot sale of Ferrières-sur-Ariège

The Car Boot Sale of Ferrières-sur-Ariège, a supportive initiative by the A'parents association

Every April, the A'parents association of Ferrières-sur-Ariège organizes the village's annual car boot sale. This spring event, driven by a collective of active and committed parents, is more than just a second-hand market: it is a unifying and supportive event that contributes to financing the activities offered to the children of the commune. The profits from the organization (rental of pitches, refreshment stand) are donated for the benefit of the school's pupils.

Ferrières-sur-Ariège, a village in the Ariège valley

Ferrières-sur-Ariège (09000) is a commune in the Ariège valley, in the department of the same name. Located between Foix to the north and Tarascon-sur-Ariège to the south, this village occupies a remarkable position in the narrow Ariège valley, whose wooded slopes offer a wild and preserved natural setting. The Ariège River, which originates in the Pyrenees near Andorra and flows towards the Garonne, crosses this territory by carving impressive gorges. Ferrières-sur-Ariège, although a small village, benefits from the proximity of Foix and its facilities.

The A'parents association, a key player in local life

The A'parents association is a collective of parents who are involved in the school and extracurricular life of Ferrières-sur-Ariège. Through various events and projects, it contributes to improving the daily lives of the children of the commune and to financing outings, school supplies, or cultural activities. The annual car boot sale is the association's flagship event, the one that generates the necessary resources for its projects while enlivening the village life in the spring.

A family-friendly and convivial car boot sale

Due to its associative and family nature, the Ferrières-sur-Ariège car boot sale has a special character. Although all types of items are welcome on the stalls, children's items - clothing of all sizes, toys, board games, children's books, childcare items - are naturally at the heart of the exchanges. Families from the village and surrounding towns meet there to buy, sell, and share, in a spirit of solidarity and kindness that the A'parents association perfectly embodies.
