Tuesday, the parking lot at the Green Point store in Kœnigsmacker was full and we were queuing in front, since only one person at a time is allowed to enter. But why is this store open?
By contacting the director of the store, he did not take the time to answer us, being overwhelmed by the frequentation of his shop. So we joined the communications department. “By decree of March 14, the Point Vert, Magasin Vert and La Maison Point Vert stores with a secondary animal feed / pet business are open,” said Christelle Sibille, communications manager at Lorca.

A nourishing vocation in priority
During our visit, earth and flowers garnished the carts. No croquettes in sight or vegetable plants. “Agricultural Cooperation, in its note of 1er April, confirmed the commercialization by indicating: following our various interventions, the Government announced the authorization to open all of the garden departments including the sale of seeds and plants. “
Nevertheless, the vocation of the network is above all nurturing: “The objective is that our customers can take advantage of their garden now and gain food values”. But the flowers? Concretely ? Can we buy some? We will not know more …
However, as everywhere in this particular period, many precautions were taken, including: protective visor, hydroalcoholic gel, gloves, distancing, payment by card, etc.
