DISCOVER THE ANDRÉVIAS FARM IN SORGES, IN THE GREEN PériGORD
A traditional farm
Ferme Andrévias, nestled in Sorges in the Périgord Vert, is a true institution perpetuating ancestral agricultural traditions.
Spanning an area of 24 hectares dedicated mainly to the cultivation of corn, wheat and barley, as well as 10 hectares devoted to the cultivation of walnut trees, it embodies the very essence of Périgord agriculture.
The passion for geese and nuts
Albin Meynard, heir to this family farm passed down over three generations, has instilled his passion for geese and walnuts into every plot of the farm.
Geese breeding constitutes one of the pillars of this activity, where the birds are welcomed from their first day to be raised with care in the vast green meadows until the age of four months.
A history rich in traditions
The history of Ferme Andrévias goes back several decades, when Marguerite, Albin's grandmother, started breeding geese, followed by her son Guy and his wife Isabelle.
Gradually, the farm specialized in the production of fat geese, while diversifying its activities with the cultivation of walnut trees, reaching up to 10 hectares.
A harmonious complementarity
The symbiosis between geese breeding and walnut cultivation perfectly illustrates the vision of the Meynard family.
The geese, enjoying the grass under the foliage of the walnut trees, contribute to the natural maintenance of the orchards while providing valuable organic fertilizer.
This complementarity between the two emblematic productions of Périgord gives Ferme Andrévias a unique identity.
Respectful agricultural practices
Concerned about preserving its environment and guaranteeing the quality of its products, Ferme Andrévias favors respectful agricultural practices.
From the cultivation of cereals to feed the geese to agroforestry promoting the development of herds, each stage of production is orchestrated with respect for nature and traditions.
