Les Formes de Pierrette in Blacy (89): organic cow cheeses
Les Formes de Pierrette is the story of a grain farm, organic since 1998, which embarked on the somewhat crazy project of "putting cows back where there were not any more".
So since 2013, Adrien's cows have been eating hay and grain and are lying down on the straw that Fabien brings them. They thus produce the manure that Louison will spread in the fields to enrich the soil in which the grow seeds, supervised by Régis.
And with the milk? The cheesemakers, Fanny, Elise, Nelly, Julie, Marina and Sophie develop a range of 25 different dairy products and cheeses, all quality products, certified organic.
