Les Frontilles Lentilles
Les Frontilles is a small farm in Aveyron where Jérémy Coulon grows blond lentils on the shores of Lac de Pareloup, in the heart of the Lévézou region. The lentils are distributed locally and through short distribution channels.
Lévezou lentils
A grower with a passion for agriculture and the land, Jérémy originally chose to plant this legume of the forgotten "Flora" variety to diversify his crops.

A mild flavor
Highly appreciated by restaurateurs, blond lentils from Lévézou are distinguished by their delicate taste, faster cooking than green lentils and great versatility: they go equally well with summer salads and simmered winter dishes. They also stand out on the shelves, thanks to their authentic, distinctive character, which comes from this variety.

Small-scale production direct from the farm
From sowing to packaging, Jérémy and Lucie take great care at every stage: "With over ten years' experience, we make it a point of honor to guarantee consistent quality and careful packaging. At La ferme des Frontilles, we don't leave the soil bare. To grow our lentils, we practice soil regeneration agriculture: plant cover is planted the year before the lentils are sown, a true ally of biodiversity".
Small-scale local production of a forgotten variety
"Sown in the spring, our lentils flourish in sandy soil at an altitude of over 800 metres on the Lévezou plateau, with a breathtaking view over Lake Pareloup. They are grown, harvested and bagged at the Frontin bas farm in Canet-de-Salars. We use no chemical fertilizers or irrigation on this annual plant. When they reach maturity, they are harvested in full view of summer visitors.
