Our farm is the place where we live and work and we are delighted to welcome you to show you our farm activities and to give you a taste of our typical regional produce.
Established in 1988, our farm has progressively developed and now covers 56 hectares. Over and above production activities, our aim is also to help you learn a little more about life on the farm.
Two ways to discover the EDUCATIONAL FARM:
- Guided tours (reservation required) - Open visits every day from 10am to 7pm (except Sunday afternoon)
« At the start of the visit you will be given a questionnaire; answers can be found on the different information boards which you will gradually discover throughout your visit and you can also meet with and touch the farm animals »:
- 32 Normande race dairy cows (dairy sales quota of 185,000 litres),
- « chipie » the ass, our mascot,
- 20 home-bred heifers aged 1 and 2 years to replace our cows,
- 20 male cattle aged 1 and 2 years for butcher’s meat,
- 22 ewes with their lambs,
- pigs,
- a goat.
And we have also been producing cider, Calvados and apple juice since 1990.
