The soft Caillé de Saint Félicien is a tradition that is dear to them on this farm. When it had almost disappeared from the cheese landscape, the producers never stopped bringing this cheese so characteristic of the upper Ardèche to life.

The Amélie Farm in Préaux
A family business since 1880, the Ferme de l'Amélie is a traditional mixed crop-livestock farm in Haut-Vivarais.
“Our farm is very diverse. We raise goats, cows and pigs. The herds complement each other and allow no resources to be wasted. As soon as the weather permits, the animals find their food on pasture.
The menu varies according to the season: grass, alfalfa, wild thyme, sage, brushwood, shrubs, acorns, chestnuts...
Well fed, the goats give us quality milk with which we make a wide range of traditional cheeses (Caillé Doux de Saint-Félicien and Picodon AOP) and farm specialties (Pyramide cendrée, Tonnelier, strainers, aperitif corks, etc.) »
