FROM FARM TO PLATE
The Agerria farm is a family farm from generations to generations located in the heart of the Basque Country in the Arberoue valley.
Today, Bernadette, Jean Claude and their daughter Maitena are dairy sheep breeders , they develop and refine the cheese in accordance with the specifications of the AOP Ossau Iraty with raw milk. They also breed Pie Noir pigs from the Basque Country in the open air.
For twenty years, they have opened the doors of their farm to the public in order to share their knowledge and know-how . They will make you discover the cycles of life and understand the vital links: earth, plant, animal, man.
