In 1865, to allow the waters of the Durance to pass through the lands of the Marquis de Boisseul, a long earth aqueduct was built. From then on, an agricultural domain was born, it developed over the generations while retaining the name which allowed its creation.
The Cauvin family has been farming the lands of Mas de l'Aqueduc since 1965. At that time, the estate practiced traditional mixed farming, meadows, vines, sheep farming and cereals. He gradually specialized in the cultivation of Crau hay
Located on the border between the old and the young Crau, on superficial and very stony clay-limestone soils, our natural meadows extend over more than 100 hectares. The oldest date back 150 years when the Rageyrol de Vergières irrigation canal was created.
Sowing is spontaneous thanks to the waters of the Durance in summer, and grazing in winter by flocks of sheep. Every year we find an exceptional and balanced floristic diversity between legumes and grasses.
The 3 hay cuts are made between May and September. The dry and windy climate allows for the harvest of quality fodder, very palatable and rich in mineral salts. The 4th cut will be used for sheep grazing from October. We are members of the Crau Hay Committee and have followed the AOC specifications since its creation.
The products in this store are distributed by the company Ponera, the leading e-retailer in Europe, located in Hauts-de-France
