Racine is a very dynamic little village, with a saturday farmer's market, and all kind of little stores ( meat, cheese, bread, clothes, library) where one can find all is needed.

  We'll do groceries to the tastes of the workers, so they can have breakfast and supper on their own if they wish. We usually take lunch together, cooking and sharing recipes.
