The History, Dairy & Farm, Animals & Maker

Thierry Chevenet manages his family farm in Hurigny, central France, with the goal of keeping the herds as naturally as possible. The goats all have their horns, are fed traditionally with fresh grass and homegrown fodder from their 200 hectare estate. Thierry says that this natural way of living, within which they organise themselves, means they never need to see the vet.
Thierry also manages the cheese production, which is small production and traditional, and even personally tastes the cheeses every morning to ensure they meet his high standards.

Sustainability

The goats live a very natural life outdoors in their own self managed herds, with a homegrown diet during winter months. The cheese is made on site so there are no food miles involved in feeding the animals or in cheese production.
