The Ardèche region in South East France has the ideal climate, temperature and soil for chestnut trees which needs a certain acidity in the soil and a limited range of altitudes.  Our chestnuts are picked in autumn, sorted, peeled and vacuum packed. Natural and organic, they are a great addition to all seasonal recipes.The Ardèche region in South East France has the ideal climate, temperature and soil for chestnut trees which needs a certain acidity in the soil and a limited range of altitudes.
