My structure

Description

As someone deeply involved in the development of small-scale farming through the Adear du Tarn, offering farm stays has always been a dream of mine. The opportunity to renovate an outbuilding into a guesthouse made it possible to finally get started!

The farm’s main agricultural product is eggs, with nearly 250 hens free to roam across nearly a hectare of partly wooded land. The young hens share the space with older hens who have earned the right to a well-deserved retirement. These older hens live alongside lesser-known breeds, such as the Australorp, but also and especially the Noires de Caussade—small, hardy, all-black hens native to the region that are on the verge of extinction and lay very white eggs!

As a passionate enthusiast, it would be my great pleasure to introduce you to this incredible little world. But that’s not all!

The farm is also home to a herd of 7 goats—3 males and 4 females—who are always up to some mischief. Two draft mares, a mother and daughter, round out the picture.

And Lo biaïs al maset is above all a fabulous project spanning some twenty hectares, managed using agroecology and agroforestry methods, which serve as the basis for an ORE (Real Environmental Obligation). Grains are grown there from heirloom seeds, as well as potatoes. The meadows are currently being mowed but will soon be grazed by horses and sheep, which will keep the wild animals company: deer, rabbits, and hares, as well as birds nesting in the hedgerows.

That’s it—I can’t wait to show you this little paradise.
