Ferme d'Écancourt, Farmhouse in Jouy-le-Moutier, France
The Ferme d'Écancourt is a working farmhouse in Jouy-le-Moutier, France, situated at the edge of the Hautil forest. The property includes old stone buildings, open fields, an educational garden with separate sections for vegetables and plants, and a small gardener's hut.
The farm has been part of the Jouy-le-Moutier landscape for many decades, originally serving as a working agricultural property for the local community. Over time, an environmental education organization took over its management and shaped it into a place for learning programs.
The farm is open year-round and individuals can walk freely through the grounds without a reservation, while groups are advised to arrange their visit in advance by phone. Wearing comfortable shoes is a good idea since the terrain includes fields and garden paths.
The farm sells fresh products such as eggs, cheeses, and vegetables directly to visitors on site. On some occasions, live animals including lambs, chickens, and rabbits are also available to buy.
