It is in Poizat, in the Ain region that Delphine and Florent are reviving the farm tradition of Bleu de Gex! They join the small circle of manufacturers of this typical cheese, which includes only 5 workshops and is distinguished by its production on the farm. The last one, located in La Pesse, had stopped the tradition more than 40 years ago.

Florent was already making tomme and the farm being in the PDO zone, it is quite naturally, at the request of Delphine, that they started. True enthusiasts, they regularly offer activities on the estate.

On the RN 102, at the place Jaladx towards Aubenas, there is a farm that produces the famous artisous cheese, the Velay, typical of the Haute Loire. You will also find yogurts, butter, blue cheese and even lentils. Cheese is made of raw milk from cow. The know-how of this family has passed from generation to generation. Artisans, artisous for connoisseurs, are present in all the cellars of the land.
