Fall is a great time to sample our Country Roads tours

Rawdon, September 6, 2011 – Once again, Fall is the perfect time to try our Country Roads tours (Les Chemins de campagne), when many businesses featured on our map will be staying open until Thanksgiving. It’s not too late to explore our six agro-tourism tours and discover the many wonderful products of Lanaudière region!

Farmers, producers and other businesses along the Country Roads routes will be pleased to welcome you every weekend until October 10, between 10 am and 5 pm. Some are also open year-round.

Taking a Country Roads tour is a guarantee that you’ll sample many delicious, unique and refined local products. As well, the arrival of Fall means that harvest time is upon us, and many farmers and producers on our tours will be waiting to share their seasonal bounty with you.

An event not to be missed!

La Courgerie in Sainte-Élisabeth again presents this year Les Cucurbitacées, a colourful painting symposium inspired by the thousands of squash and pumpkins this farm produces each harvest time. On September 17 and 18.
