ferme du moulin - photos


excited hens chasing their breakfast delivery


trying to feed 200 hungry hens is a feat of patience as they crowd round, leaving no
room to walk, move your feet or even see their feed containers.


Farmer Bea with Adrien and Tim at the night market in Esparros, feeding
customers stir fry chicken or duck with rice and vegetables.  Delicious.


the goats were supposed to be clearing brambles and scrub, but used to jump the fence
and feast on the duck food almost every day.  They're not stupid.


lovely old ramshackle farmhouse, complete with obligatory breeze block repairs
and additions.  very french.


poultry yurts, not like the ones I enjoyed at my previous hosts.


very smart pallet garden shed, veg cleaning station and bar
