Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Guardians of the Cévennes
Do I really become the owner of the plot?
    
  
  No. This is a symbolic title that does not confer any real ownership rights. The plots are located either in national forests belonging to the French state, which are inalienable by nature, or in private forests. You will receive a symbolic certificate with actual GPS coordinates as a commemorative measure.
What is my purchase for?
    
  
  Your purchase supports an environmental conservation project in the Cévennes region. It's an ecological and symbolic gesture, designed to strengthen the emotional connection with nature and offer a meaningful gift.
Where is the plot I am “sponsoring”?
    
  
  The plots are located on Mont Lozère, in the Cévennes National Park. The GPS coordinates on your certificate point to a protected forest area.
