Who we are
About the farm
We have farmed in Castétis near Orthez since 2002, on what is today a collective, agroecological, open and educational farm; on 55 hectares of grassland we keep certified organic (since 2013) Normande cows fed exclusively on grass and barn-dried hay, and since 2020 also black pigs. Since 2008 we have turned our own raw milk on the farm into aged cheeses (Gaston Fébus, Lou Cap Bourut, Lou Poutou, Escadut), yoghurts and milk jam, and we also sell beef and black-pork charcuterie. Our farm shop is open Tuesday to Saturday from 2:30 to 6 pm, when the farm can be visited free of charge; we run guided programmes for groups and training for farmers, and our products are also sold through AMAPs, at the Orthez covered market and in our online shop.

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.
