Originally: Colette, 48 years old, native of Natzwiller, poultry farmer and innkeeper. Colette has always dreamed of one thing: having her own farm. When her parents took over an old textile factory to transform it into a hotel, her destiny began to take shape... But the hotel business did not really interest her, what she wanted was to have time to pamper poultry and cook. In 1993 she took over the establishment, transformed it into the "Café du Charapont" which would become the Charapont farm inn and at the same time started breeding ducks, geese, guinea fowl and other small feathered creatures.
Her passion: her farmyard, her stoves, wild plants, the culinary heritage left by her mother, already a fine cook. She prefers "big pots" to "ultra-sophisticated little dishes" and intensive farming doesn't appeal to her. Poultry has to walk, scratch and splash around. But what she loves above all is "having a good time with people"!
Her pride: offering her guests ultra-short-circuit country cuisine that matches her ambitions and is completely transparent, helping them discover the taste and nutritional virtues of aromatic plants and generously passing on to them “what she knows” and “how she does it”.
