GAEC LA GIRONAISE
Description
In the small, picturesque town of Foussais-Payré, the Guillemet family breeds cows from the local Parthenaise breed, in accordance with the "Label Rouge boeuf fermier de Vendée" and "Indication Géographique Protégé" specifications.
Breeders and fatteners for 5 generations, they regularly win awards for the Parthenaises they present at various competitions.
Open every 1st Friday of the month, pay them a visit and let yourself be tempted by one of their assortments of meats.
A former instructor at the Maison Familiale Rurale, Cathie warmly welcomes families and groups to her farm to explain how she looks after her cows on a daily basis and how she prepares some of them for competitions. A fine cook, you'll never cook meat the way you used to: she'll explain how to make the most of each piece, its fibrousness and its long maturation to obtain meat that's well marbled and tasty.
