National Forest Park Benoît and Laurie Monzein, farmers, millers and bakers La ferme de l'Aubette

Benoît and Laurie run Ferme de l'Aubette in Chambain, Côte-d'Or. Since 2022, their production has carried the Esprit parc national - forêts label:

We are farmers, millers and bakers. We grow cereals. We transform part of this cereal into flour using a stone mill. And we make bread with the flour, using organic farming methods.

We're located around the village of Chambain, our fields are in Menesble and we share the mill with the Conclois farm, in the commune of Bure-les-Templiers. This is in the heart of the National Park, near Recey-sur-Ource.

As fate would have it, we were sent on an internship to work on a farm. At the end of the internship, the farmer asked me to take over part of his farm.

After careful consideration, we decided to accept and set up here!

The Esprit Parc Nationalbrand is both a mark of trust and a way of putting down roots in the region. For us, it's a way of explaining who we are and what we do to people who don't know us yet...
