Chickens and Vines – Ingrandes-de-Touraine, in the heart of the Bourgueil AOC
Chickens and Vines – Gabriel and Julie SIMON is a family farm located in the heart of the Bourgueil vineyards, in Ingrandes-de-Touraine (now Coteaux-sur-Loire). Created by Gabriel SIMON in 2017, the farm was born from a simple idea: to combine traditional poultry farming with the richness of the Touraine wine-growing terroir.
A farm nestled among vineyards, woods, and nature
Spanning several hectares of meadows, vineyards, and woods, the animals are raised in a natural environment. The poultry roam freely between the rows of vines where they participate in the maintenance of the plots, limit insects and naturally fertilize the soils. This approach promotes biodiversity while respecting animal welfare.
Heritage and Local Breeds
The farm is renowned for its work in preserving and promoting heritage breeds:
* Touraine Géline
* Galotiere Guinea Fowl
* Fat Duck
* Rouen Duck
* Muscovy Duckling
* Ingrandes Geese
* Quail
* Rabbit
* Julie Pigeon
* Solognote Sheep
Careful Feeding
The animals are fed with grains selected from regional producers. Rations are adapted according to species, age and season to ensure slow and natural growth. Livestock farming prioritizes preventative health measures and limits the use of chemical treatments.
Artisanal Processing and Direct Sales
Thanks to its processing workshop and artisanal cannery, the farm offers:
* Fresh poultry
* Foie gras
* Artisanal preserves
* Prepared dishes
* Eggs, duck and goose
* Regional farm products
* Local grocery items
A family story
This venture is rooted in a family history of gastronomy and local produce. Gabriel's parents have developed a business catering and promoting local products at the Manoir de la Galotière. This shared passion for good food, sustainable agriculture and the heritage of Touraine gave birth to "Des Poules et des Vignes".
