Farm Inns
A typical feature of the Vosges, the farm inns, of which there are ten, are the worthy successors of the «marcairies » of days gone by, where the shepherds and cowherds welcomed passing walkers to share their meals.
| And these farms, adapted for supplying a restaurant service, and managed by the farmer, have not lost any of the hospitality and rural atmosphere of the old days! | .jpg) |
And, of course, you can try the traditional marcaire meal there, together with other local specialities and regional products produced on the farm.
The beautiful scenery, the fresh air of the Vosges, and the unusual closeness of the farm activity add to the pleasure of enjoying authentic food and company!

The Marcaire Meal
This meal is composed of farm products: pies, smoked meats, steamed potatoes (or « toffailles »), Munster cheese and bilberry tart.
Also, the professional agricultural organizations have created a national brand name "Bienvenue à la Ferme" (« Welcome to the Farm ») which is a guarantee of the quality of real country fare and service.
