Who we are
About the farm
We keep dairy ewes in Saint-Jean-d'Alcas in the Aveyron, next to Roquefort; Alexandre took over the family farm in 2008 as the eleventh generation, and we run it together with his wife Emilie. Our 220 ewes live on 180 hectares, we grow their feed ourselves, we farm under organic (AB) certification, and on the farm we make blue cheese (Le Bleu, L'Olcas), yoghurts and kefir from raw ewe's milk. Outside the summer season you can watch the milking and visit the sheepfold free of charge every day from 5:30 pm; in summer we run a guided visit with tasting at 5 pm. You can buy our products on site, in our online shop and in farmers' shops, and you can also stay overnight in our caravan.

How we check reviews: the reviewer's email address is verified with a confirmation email, and one address can review a farm only once. We do not check whether the reviewer has bought from the farm. Every review is checked by a person before it appears; reviews that are offensive, contain personal data or are not about the farm are not published. The “Producer” label is given only when the email address belongs to a FarmAtlas farm. The farm can reply once.
