Ferme des Arpents roses
Brief introduction to the farm
Ferme des Arpents roses (could be translated to “Rose Acres Farm”) sits nestled on a quaint rural route that carves its way through the valley of the Lanaudiere region. The family-run operation is more than just a farm; it is an agricultural and ecological project spanning more than 30 years and two generations. The fruits of our labour are diverse, yet traditionally Quebecois.
Organic vegetables in all shapes, colours and varieties spring up from the hillsides. Pigs graze and frolic in the pastures. Hundred-year-old maple trees drip a sugary elixir, which is transformed the old fashioned way; with buckets, snowshoes, and boilers over a wood fire.
Above all else, it is simply a small scale farm that has, for decades, been providing many families with good things to eat.
