The Société des Ocres de France operates the last ocher quarry in the Luberon region on 2,5 acres (1 ha) in Gargas. Each year, it produces around 1,000 tons of ocher stored in hangars before being marketed in its Apt boutique-showroom, online, or exported. The naturally dried ocher is priorly cut, calcined and mixed to obtain the desired colors before being crushed and conditioned.
