Why is it feminine?

Boulangères is feminine because it's the feminine form of "boulanger" (baker), derived from the Old French "boulenge" (bread), which comes from Latin "bolus" (ball/lump); French nouns ending in "-er" typically become "-ère" in the feminine form. This follows the standard French gendering convention where occupational nouns change their ending to match the gender of the person performing the job.
