Who are we?
Above all, La Ferme Chapelle is a family story : there are 3 of us, Ingrid, Josst and Steven, who arrived in Saint-Sozy, in the Lot in 2001 to create a goat farm.
It all started when Joost, as a teenager, came to work during the holidays at a cheese factory near Souillac. His love of goats and their fabulous cheeses was born!
So it was only natural that he turned to this professional sector a little bit later, associating with him in his wife and Steven (Ingrid’s sister’s husband).
The three of us started the adventure with a small herd in order to produce milk. But very soon we decided to make our own cheeses. Little by little, the herd has grown and new cheeses have emerged, some of which are regularly awarded.
Always concerned about animal welfare and the environment, we, at La Ferme Chapelle, are teeming with new ideas and developing new concepts for the future.

our Goats
our friends for many years
Our goats are all of the Saanen breed. They move freely in the goat farm where they receive daily top quality food from our farm.
We are also very concerned about their welfare and health. We have several projects in this direction. Half of the herd gives birth to kids each year, while the other half gives milk. Milking takes place twice a day and collects 2 to 3 liters of milk per goat.

our Values
a reasonable approach, close to nature
Nature
We feed our goats exclusively with hay collected on the meadows of our farm. They appreciate the quality and the wide variety of flowers that grow there without fertilizer. Thanks to this top-quality food, we obtain cheeses with an incomparable taste.
Environment
We are committed to protecting the planet and our immediate environment. This is the reason why we have started a process of recycling our waste. We are also working on several projects to become self-sufficient in energy.
Know-how
Our working methods come from a long experience in goat breeding and cheese making. We are constantly evolving and always working on improving our methods. Our top priority being above all Quality.
AOP
From the beginning when we set up in 2001, we subscribed to the specifications of the AOPRocamadour. Our desire for excellence does not stop there as we participate in several competitions every year and are regularly awarded prizes.
