Breuilh Farm
is situated in the village of
Maurens, near Villamblard between Bergerac and Périgueux in the «
Périgord Pourpre ». The
Dordogne in the South-west of France produces some of France’s
finest food and is internationally renowned for its gastronomy.
The Aubertie family have been farming the same land since 1680; they
began breeding birds for fattening in 1970.
Today, the farm’s
main activity is the breeding, cramming, processing and direct sale
of goose and duck produce.
This is a year-round activity and the 12 ha farm is divided into :
• grassy enclosures
• maize
• wheat
The geese are raised on the farm from one day old.
The ducks are raised in the Périgord by a farmer who adheres to the
IGP charter (Protected Geographical Identity).
