La ferme d'upignac, une histoire de terroir.

Ferme d’Upignac is situated in the heart of the Hesbaye, a region that is known for its solid but fertile soil. The traditionally built courtyard farm has been in the Petit family for more than 300 years. Visitors enter the paved courtyard through a stately portico building. The oldest part of the farm are the living quarters, which date from the 17th century. The courtyard farm also has a large barn, previously used to store corn, and stables that can accommodate up to 20 horses (these were used to till the land in the past). But this erstwhile livestock has today made way for a reception hall and a farm store in the beautifully restored buildings.

The Hesbaye is a distinctly rural region, with a soil that is ideal for growing fruit trees. It’s why the local orchards are considered a vital part of the region’s heritage. In 1985, however, the Petit family discovered that the lush meadows and the local climate also offer the perfect conditions to raise ducks.

Ferme d’Upignac is a textbook example of a family-owned company that has put down strong, local roots. The farm has been handed down from one generation to the next for three centuries now. But the company’s large supporting staff are also part of the tight-knit Upignac family. Every one of them is deeply committed to the company’s activities and they all share a passion for fine food. The craftsmanship of the Upignac workers is a guarantee for quality and the proof of that is in the taste of our farm products.
