A desire for good cheeses? Go to the Oulettes goat farm. Adrien will welcome you and show you his quality products.
A turning point in life
“I obtained a professional bac CGEA (conduct and management of agricultural operations) at the MFR (Maison Familiale Rurale) in Cruseilles in 2005. I then worked as an agricultural employee at GAEC Les Marmottes in Brison until 2012. I stopped my salaried activity at the end of 2012 due to a health problem.
Once I recovered, I could not see myself stopping farming, so it was at that time that I decided to settle down as a goat to adapt the working techniques to my health concerns.
The goat is a more docile animal than the cow. They are very sociable, pleasant animals, and easier to manage alone. The start-up investment is also lower. Today at the goat farm there are 70 Alpine goats, 15 young goats and 2 billy goats.
So I started my project in 2013 and moved with the goats to the Oulettes building on June 10, 2016. ”
Quality First !
“I like working with goats, the variety of tasks and being able to control the entire production chain of my cheeses (from the goat to the consumer) to try to make a product of the best possible quality. "
All these good products then, where can we find them?
"The sale is made at the farm, at the grocery store and at the butcher's shop in Mont-saxonnex, at the LOCAVOR farm drive, in supermarkets, in cheese factories in the valley and also in a few restaurants in Mont-Saxonnex, Brison and The valley. "
Here and nowhere else
“I love Mont-saxonnex because it has been the village of my childhood and my family for several generations. I would never have wanted to settle elsewhere. "
