The portrait of Catherine

Catherine opened La TERFERME in 2019, a shop selling local and unusual products. Open every day, all day long and even in the evening, it is made up of vending machines where you can find a wide range of local products.

Cheeses, vegetables, fruits; the self-service compartments are available at any time of the day.

 

CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT YOUR JOB IN A FEW WORDS?

Duroc pigs are born at the farm at the foot of Mont Cassel

They are fed grains and linseeds because a well-fed animal feeds us well… We don’t give them any antibiotics but we use essential oils if necessary. We began selling directly with the short-circuit platform in 2018 with a drive-through collection on Fridays at the farm.

The shop, LA TERFERME, opened in June 2019.

WHY DID YOU CHOOSE THIS TRADE?
