In 2007, Jose and Marylène Benoit decided to accompany their son in a tourism project and wellness farm. They then transfer their food activity to competition and engage in the realization of this great project with five eco-lodges, a seminar room and a spa center. Wheat straw is selected as the carrier in the walls and as the sole insulation material.
