A meadow full of flowers to shelter a childhood dream

After more than five generations on the family estate and six children with his wife Loyse, Patrick Gavin is not someone to stop half-way to a dream. To stay young and keep a make-believe world alive, he likes imagining himself as a centaur. Real life on the farm includes growing bread-making cereals, fodder crops, potatoes, rapeseed, beet, maize and milk production for Le Maréchal : « a unique new Broyard cheese which will soon be an absolute must ». He enjoys long walks in flowery meadows which change with the passing seasons followed, when he gets home, by a nice steak served up with pepper sauce.

Independence and daring

Married and a father of three, André Hadorn has been farming his land in Seigneux since 1961 growing potatoes, beet and cereal crops. For him, Le Maréchal is an audacious product, «the best of cheeses», and when he invites his friends his favourite meal is a convivial fondue.
