Discover our farm located just 10 minutes from Sarlat with our livestock breeding, force feeding and bottling operations. All our produce is traditionally made on the farm. We also grow cereals and we feed our animals with our own produce, in the next few months, our cereal production will be 100% organic.

OUR LIVESTOCK LIFE
Our one day-old goslings arrive on our farm and we settle them in inside one of our buildings which is heated to approximately 30 °C. This period is the most difficult period as the temperature needs to be managed, as well as the feed (that we make ourselves, it’s GMO free and in few months time it will be fully organic), the watering and the first day out occurs when the goslings are 2 to 3 weeks old, depending on the season. We grow a part of the cereals that are consumed by our geese, and our soil cultivation work is organic.

For this year, our farm has new projects : plantation of 700 trees and shrubs. Then the goslings are directed towards green fields, but at dusk, they go back to their barn to keep them safe from predators until they are 14 to 18 weeks old.
