Car boot sale and garden clear-out of Fresnay-l'Évêque

A car boot sale with a gardening touch in Fresnay-l'Évêque

The unique aspect of the sale in Fresnay-l'Évêque is the combination of a traditional car boot sale with a garden clear-out: in addition to usual flea market items — clothing, furniture, tableware, toys, books, knick-knacks — exhibitors offer plants, gardening tools, garden furniture, pots, and everything related to outdoor living. This dual theme appeals to bargain hunters as well as gardeners looking for good deals and unique plants.

The event is held at 3 rue de la Mairie, in the heart of the village, every year in June. It is organized by local residents and associations, in a spirit of solidarity and conviviality typical of villages in Eure-et-Loir.
