When we talk about “plot sponsorship,” some people raise an eyebrow. That’s normal. In a world where everything is sold, where everything has a price, the symbolic can be surprising . So let’s be clear, frank, and Cévenols right down to the Causses: here’s what you’re really buying , and why it’s as serious as it is poetic.
Is this real land ownership?
No.
You don't become the legal owner of a piece of forest. The land in question is protected state forest , belonging to the French state. No one can legally appropriate it or build anything on it – and that's a good thing!
What you get is a symbolic right of attachment to a piece of this territory, with:
- A personalized certificate
- A unique GPS location
- A possible transmission as a gift or inheritance
- And above all: a concrete gesture of support for the preservation of the Cévennes
Why isn't this just a "forest scam"?
Because everything is transparent , legal , and useful :
- We are not inventing anything: each symbolic square meter is located in an authentic, preserved and identified area .
- The funds raised are used to support awareness-raising activities, local events, and heritage projects .
- You receive an official, traceable document in your name .
- No hidden asterisks, no trickery.
The project is conceived as a poetic experience , but firmly anchored in reality. And that, in the Cévennes, we know.
Why trust the Guardians of the Cévennes?
Because we were born here, or fell in love with here.
Because we do not claim to sell a title of nobility, but to offer a strong symbolic link to a land as harsh as it is magnificent.
Because everything is assumed, explained, and sincere. And above all: because each person who becomes a Guardian adds a little breath of fresh air to this living territory.
In summary:
This isn't a purchase. It's a commitment. A promise to the forest, and to those who love it.
