La Ferme du Roc

La Ferme du Roc was created by Sophie Thibon in 2015, in the town of Saint-Thomas-de-Conac, in the south of Charente Maritime with the first 19 young goats.

At La Ferme du Roc, Sophie now raises her 60 organic goats, which benefit from days of grazing in 5 ha of hills on the banks of the Gironde, facing a magnificent panorama. His animals eat fodder from the farm, hay from 11ha of meadows and local organic cereals. The farm has the AB label, which imposes requirements at the level of crops, including for example the ban on phytosanitary products. It also adheres to the Chèvres Poitevines brand, for which an association for the defense and development of the Poitevine goat imposes specifications concerning the herd itself, respect for animal welfare and the production of cheese with respect. of tradition

At the farm, Sophie produces more than twenty kinds of cheese in accordance with the traditional method of production. This is a whey method, in which no ferments or artificial powder are used, which contributes to the added value of the product. There is a jumble of palettes, pyramids, square bricks, soft cheeses, pressed cheeses, but also extra fresh cheeses, in the form of white or faisselle cheeses, from the bush, pasteurized milk, yogurts and cream desserts. There is something for every taste !
