Coco Ferme is the story of Max, a 12-year-old entrepreneur forced to close his garage-operated business and move with his father to a remote rural village. When Max discovers some chickens in his cousin Charles’ old abandoned barn, he sees an opportunity to get back into business. The two join forces with Alice, a young youtuber renowned for her market gardening videos, and set about creating a farm with 500 laying hens.
