Several local producers visit our summer market in Mont Tremblant but what would you say about reaching out and visiting them, especially if it’s only a few kilometers away? It’s a nice activity to do with family or simply to see what is actually put on our plates! Off to the farms we go!
When: Fridays during the summer between 1-6pm (5pm for the honey)
Where: Route 323 from Mont Tremblant towards Brébeuf
Products: Chicken and organic eggs, vegetables and honey.

Véronique with her children and their delicious vegetables.
A number of Tremblant Chefs use vegetables from here in their restaurants.

Just a little further you can buy great organic chicken, fresh eggs and full of good products, such as cheese, maple syrup and cold cuts over at Diane’s booth.
Diane and her family take good care of their chickens.
Another idea to prepare chicken breasts: breaded cutlets ! (recipe only offered in french)
We then continue on this beautiful road for a last sweet stop just before the Brébeuf beach: The best honey is right here!

Here you will find simply devine honey. The owners have also developed a new environmentally friendly packaging solution called le Api-Flex.
It was a real treat to meet all these great spots and visit these local farms.
I love my local family farmers and they are just minutes away!
