La Fontaine Dinners – December 12 – Inventor of the Safe Water Cube

November 16, 2023

La Fontaine Dinner / Dinner and Lecture / Tuesday, December 12

The La Fontaine Dinners are dinner-and-lecture events held at theÉco-Domaine La Fontaine in Pornic, consisting of several parts.

The social gathering begins with an interview with the guest over cocktails.

This will be followed by a dinner during which you’ll be invited to share a table with other guests so you can get to know one another better over a main course and dessert made with fresh, seasonal ingredients.

All of this will be accompanied by a glass of wine from our vineyards. During dinner, you’ll be invited to interact with our guest through a question-and-answer session.

Appetizers and Canapés + Main Course and Dessert + Wines from the Estate + Water and Coffee: 36€ per person

On Tuesday, December 12, we will be welcoming Jean-Paul Augereau.

For several years, Jean-Paul Augereau ran three companies simultaneously in the printing and textile industries.

One day, during a trip abroad, he nearly lost his life, but in the end, it was that very event that allowed him to reinvent himself and give his life new meaning.

He then decided to create a drinking water system that would help the most disadvantaged.

From this project emerged his “second life”: a career in community service and humanitarian work, marked by his invention of the Safe Water Cube, a drinking water fountain.

He invites us to learn about his story and his journey during the upcoming “La Fontaine Dinner.”

Mark your calendars—here's the schedule (subject to change):

  • Tuesday, December 12: Jean-Paul AUGEREAU, inventor of the Safe Water Cube
  • Tuesday, January 9: Surprise!
  • Tuesday, February 13: Mathieu GUIBERT, chef at Anne de Bretagne
