Good day all,

We're traveling to Toulouse region for a summer exchange of our sons with a French family.  

We'll have about ten days to bike the hills to the north & hike the mountains to the south.  

If you know of any people to meet & places to vist, we're looking to compare notes on growing eco-communities, forests, food.  

Thanks kindly!

Thanks.  First went there early 90s for research with John Norton/ Development Workshop/ earthen construction, & stayed in rolling oak hills on old farm with cheese & wine caves.  Next late 00s to visit friends who among other things made their own pate, & to recon the mountains scrambling foothills & high tracks.  Very keen to bike, hike, talk, eat.
