What is HVE Certification?
High environmental value (HEV) corresponds to the highest level of a more general scheme of environmental certification for farms. The farm environmental certification is a voluntary approach which aims to identify and promote particularly environmentally-friendly practices applied by farmers. HEV covers four key areas: biodiversity conservation, plant protection strategy, management of fertilizer use and management of water.
In order to engage the whole agricultural sector in an approach focused on environmental progress, it is designed on the basis of certification of the whole farm at three levels.
The third or "high environmental value" level is based on performance indicators. Farm certification, which enables farmers to label their products with a value statement "from farms certified as having high environmental value", guarantees a farm's high level of environmental performance.
The farm holds France’s Haute Valeur Environnementale Level 3 certification. This official High Environmental Value certification recognises agricultural performance in areas including:
-
biodiversity protection;
-
responsible crop-management strategies;
-
soil fertility and fertilisation;
-
water-resource protection;
-
crop rotation and ecological infrastructure;
-
reduced dependence on agricultural inputs.

About Moulin des Courtils
Ratton Pantry is proud to introduce Moulins des Courtils to the UK, becoming the first UK stockist of these exceptional French flours. Based in the Ardennes near Rethel, Moulins des Courtils comes from a farming family with a history stretching back around 300 years, combining generations of agricultural knowledge with a strong focus on provenance, quality and responsible farming.
These are high-grade, small-batch French flours, created with bakers and cooks who care deeply about the quality of their raw ingredients in mind. The range includes beautifully refined white flours alongside cream, semi-wholemeal and wholemeal styles, each designed to retain its own distinctive flavour, texture and baking characteristics. Unlike standard UK flour, the Moulins des Courtils range stocked by Ratton Pantry is unfortified, making it particularly appealing to customers looking for traditionally produced flour without the mandatory vitamin and mineral additions commonly found in British-milled wheat flour.
For Ratton Pantry, Moulins des Courtils represents exactly the type of producer we want to bring to our customers: independent, highly specialised and uncompromising about quality. By importing these flours directly from France, we are able to offer UK home bakers, artisan bakeries, chefs and food professionals access to a genuinely distinctive flour range that has previously been extremely difficult to source here. We are delighted to be bringing Moulins des Courtils to the UK for the first time and to add another exceptional European mill to the growing specialist flour selection at Ratton Pantry.
