In Sainte-Catherine, on the heights of the Monts du Lyonnais, Gilles Gaudin cultivates the land with passion and simplicity. An arborist from father to son, he perpetuates a local know-how in harmony with the seasons and the hilly landscapes of the region. On his farm, nature dictates the pace, and each harvest is the result of careful and respectful work. Specialising in the cultivation of plums, strawberries and redcurrants, Gilles carefully monitors the quality of his fruit. He favours reasoned agricultural practices, concerned with preserving the soil, biodiversity and the richness of his terroir. Each variety, each aroma tells a story, that of a climate, a territory and an expert hand. More than a job, it’s a vocation: to grow good, real things, and to share them. Behind each punnet of fruit, there is the pride of a man attached to his land, to its values, and to the transmission of a living heritage.
