Local food, simply made
Discover the agricultural side of La Ferme Buissonnière through products prepared or raised on the farm. Chickens and homemade jams are among the products available, reflecting a simple approach centred on the farm, garden and local ingredients.
From the farm
La Ferme Buissonnière raises chickens outdoors and produces homemade jams using fruits such as rhubarb, redcurrants, raspberries, blackcurrants and blackberries from the garden. The farm also produces eggs and other seasonal products.
Taste local flavours
Guests staying at the property can also discover the table d’hôtes , where evening meals are prepared with fresh farm produce and locally sourced ingredients, with menus changing according to the season. Meals may be served in the garden, veranda or beside the stove depending on the time of year.
You will find at the farm...
- 2 boxed farm eggs
- Chickens, ducks and quail ready to cook (on order)
- Homemade jams
The Chickens
Small farm opposite the Chartreuse monastery since 2019. We raise broiler chickens . The chicks are raised outdoors on the farm and have not received any antibiotic treatment . They are grain -fed . We use only natural plant- or mineral-based products for animal care . Slaughtering also takes place on the farm, so the animals are not transported. The chickens are between 3 and 5 months old at slaughter.
The Quails
We offer quail raised from eggs that we hatch on the farm, alternating with chick hatchings. The quail live in open aviaries located outdoors. The last hatchings take place in October and resume in March to avoid the harshest cold weather. Fed with local grain, they are slaughtered between 2 and 3 months of age.
The ducks
Raised outdoors from day-old ducklings and fed on cracked corn, they are 3 to 4 months old at slaughter. The male ducks weigh approximately 4 kg and the female ducks 2.5 kg.
The eggs
The eggs are produced by our hens. We have about thirty hens that we keep. They are fed grain (triticale, corn, wheat). We also give them crushed eggshells to help produce eggs with strong shells. For their well-being, the hens are treated against parasites (red mites, intestinal worms) using only mineral or plant-based products. Therefore, the eggs contain NO ANTIBIOTICS. During the day, they have access to the outdoors and roam freely in the neighboring meadow.
Jams
The garden provides us with rhubarb, redcurrants, raspberries, blackcurrants, and blackberries, which we turn into jam. I don't use any chemicals in the garden. The soil is enriched with manure from our rabbits and chickens, and compost. The jams are made with sugar from organic farming.

The communal table
The Table d'hôte is reserved for guests staying in a bed and breakfast room (minimum 2 people). The evening meal is prepared using farm produce and therefore varies according to the season. It includes a starter (soup or salad), a main course, and a dessert. We offer a glass of wine and/or coffee or herbal tea to finish the meal (not included in the price of the meal).
For those who would like a light evening meal, we can offer a "small evening snack." We will provide a mixed salad or homemade soup accompanied by market cheese and homemade bread. A piece of fruit or a yogurt will complete this simple meal.
Meal times start between 7pm and 8pm. Flexibility in case of late arrival.
