A project to discover

The family business of Esther and Nicolas Mottier is located in the village of Château-d'Œx, in the heart of the Swiss pre-Alps.

Together with our family and our team, we have been committed to sustainable and innovative development in the fields of agriculture, health, and food for years.

In recent years, we have gradually converted our farm to biodynamic agriculture and opened an organic store and naturopathic practice in Château-d'Œx. At the same time, we are working on a pioneering project to create a center of competence for environmental and societal transition.

This concept, developed with love and enthusiasm, aims to offer visitors numerous opportunities to experience the link with life on an innovative farm, and to experiment concrete solutions to societal and environmental challenges. Traditions and regenerative agriculture will go hand in hand with sustainable tourism, integral health, holistic education and innovative jobs.
