respectful approach to nature. Les Jardins de Gaïa encourages its
producers to cultivate teas according to biodynamic principles that contribute to
nourish the soils. All its activities respect fair trade principles. At the end of 2012,
a new tea range of 21 references will be launched, in a premium packaging with
unique design, especially conceived for delicatessen shops around the world.

Business activity:
La Fermière was created by François Guinchard in
Marseille. The original purpose of the brand was
to offer yogurts of the highest quality on a local
scale; a significant innovation on the marketplace. As soon as the early 60’s their
popularity spread, the whole region was seduced by the distinctive quality of the
products. Then in the 70’s we sparked off the interest of the food retailing
brands. Following the take-over by the Tarpinian Company in 2002, La Fermière
went from a local family business to a medium enterprise. Since then the brand
has been creating dairy products of quality prizing a traditional manufacturing
method and selecting the best products.
