Flower Market, Swaps and Car Boot Sale of Le Houga

A Spring Event Combining Gardening and Bargain Hunting

Every May, Le Houga (32460) hosts an original event that blends the pleasures of gardening and bargain hunting. The Flower Market, Swaps and Car Boot Sale offers a triple attraction: a flower and plant market, a swap space for gardeners, and a traditional car boot sale.

Flower Market and Plant Swaps

Local nursery owners and amateur gardeners offer a wide range of seasonal plants: annual and perennial flowers, vegetable plants, herbs, seedlings, bulbs, and shrubs. The swap space allows gardeners to exchange cuttings, seeds, surplus plants, and advice. It's the ideal place to fill your garden at a lower cost and discover new varieties adapted to the Gascon climate.

Bucolic Car Boot Sale

Alongside the flower market, the car boot sale takes over the village streets with its array of second-hand items: clothing, toys, books, crockery, garden furniture, tools, pots, and outdoor decorative objects. The "flower market + car boot sale" format attracts a diverse audience, from gardening enthusiasts to bargain hunters.

Le Houga in Spring

Le Houga is a peaceful village in the north of the Gers region, surrounded by cultivated hills and woods. In spring, the Gascon countryside is at its peak with its blooming fields, young vines, and flowering orchards. The flower market and car boot sale perfectly fit this spring atmosphere, offering a pleasant outing for families and nature lovers. It's also an opportunity to meet passionate gardeners, exchange cultivation tips adapted to the Gascon climate, and leave with robust plants and bargain finds. A bucolic event not to be missed in May.
