We offer family-style catering, using mainly local produce and products from our educational garden, depending on the season. Meals are prepared on site in compliance with HACCP regulations.

• Traditionalbreakfast includes bread from the baker, butter, homemade jams, hot drinks (tea, coffee or ricoré) and chocolate milk for the children. All accompanied by a glass of apple juice.
• Participatorylunch: the group or family contributes to the preparation of the lunch. The menu generally consists of a raw vegetable starter with vegetables from the garden, when the kitchen garden allows it, a hot dish prepared on site and a seasonal fruit or homemade dessert. Sometimes ice cream, of course.
• A farmsnack in the barn next to the cows or in the undergrowth for young and old alike: bread and chocolate as in the old days - a simple, traditional moment that children really appreciate.
• Evening meal : dinner always includes a homemade soup, whatever the season, followed by a simple dish (croque monsieur, homemade pizza, mixed salads, pasta, etc.).
