Les 13 Blès – Goat farming for cheese
The pioneers
Les 13 blés is a GoatFarm connected to a Cheese Factory very close to the centre of France. It is run by the amazing Justine Floquet.
Now, we hear what you’re thinking: “Why is is there a rural farm in a series on how to become an urban or vertical farming?”.
The answer is simple though. Justine is facing very similar challenges as urban farmers. Moreover, she and her sisters have found an amazingly clever way on how to overcome those.
How is this possible?
Justine found a way to be small-scale, organic and in love with everything happening on her farm. She’s herding 80 goats, many other animals and grows some crops.
Next to that she’s running a cheese factory together with her sisters. And to finish it off, they’re also running a shop where they sell their cheese, produce and a lot of other local products.
