Once upon a goose

The cycle of Au Gîte des Oies is a perfectly imperfect cycle. A cycle that follows the rhythm of nature, no faster, no slower. A cycle that evolves with the seasons and the years.

Safia Barrou and her team, who knew nothing about animal production, are finding their rhythm through the unknown of the first year of taking over Linda and Louis' project. The geese with their endearing personalities, the magic of hatching, the biodiversity, the close-knit and dedicated team—these are what make the project what it is. A project driven by a dream, filled with love, unforgettable encounters, challenges, and, above all, a new way of life that provides unimaginable well-being.

“There was a goose”, the story of Au Gîte des Oies in all its authenticity and uniqueness!
