Look at these lovelies.

Flamingoes in Provence

Did you know that we have a lot of flamingoes in Provence? It’s not something that one would associate with the place of hilltop towns, olives, almonds, sunflowers, and lavender but that is my favourite thing about this region- it’s diversity.

From our location in Provence, close to St Remy, we can drive an hour in any direction and reach the sea, mountains, or lakes. Or, in this case, the salty marshlands of the Camargue known for their bulls, horseback riding prowess, and diverse bird wildlife.

Yesterday evening, in the golden sunshine, we visited Fromagerie Roumanille in St Remy de Provence. The owners, Melanie and Jean-Marc, are truly passionate about their work. You can taste the cheeses, ice cream as well as the pork products. It’s rare to find farmers with cattle and pork here in Provence where goats are normally more popular. The cows 🐄 are curious and friendly! We got licked quite a lot 😂. This grass-fed, small herd are raised completely organic. You can buy their cheese and yogurt at their farm shop, the market in St Remy on Saturday, and the special fridge in the St Remy Intermarche just for them! Merci Melanie et Jean-Marc pour votre accueil ! Fromagerie roumanille @ Saint-Rémy-de-Provence
