Restaurant business to market gardening

Well, I’ve been on the family farm on Rang 6 for five years now. But at the time, I had moved to the area eight years earlier. At that point, my goal was to start a vegetable farm in Saint-Denis, the village next to Mont-Carmel. At the time, my uncle owned the family farm here, and he was the one who ran it.

So why did I decide to go into vegetable farming in 2017? It was because I wanted to get out of the restaurant business. I also wanted to get a bit closer to the product. I was processing beautiful products in the restaurant industry, but I found that my life lacked a little meaning. I wanted to produce food directly, while maintaining contact with customers. And at the same time, I was craving a bit of freedom and entrepreneurship, all of which led me to this path.
