I've been coming by here for 7 years as it's on my shortcut through the Laval countryside so I can…read moreavoid the white knuckle traffic of the Autoroute 25/440 that can at times drive me to the brink of insanity. In the summer months they offer a farmers market. It's closed however in the Winter. Today I came here to pick strawberries with my daughter. It is an awesome mid June activity. Especially having the day off for St Jean. For $8 you get a great 3L paper basket and fill it till she's overflowing with some of the freshest and tastiest strawberries around. I didn't ask what pesticide they use here but I really wanted to. Makes me think.....I always wonder how much pesticide they use. They definitely need some but. I wonder how bad it will be for my health? The same basket you can buy a basket of already picked for $9 by the cash register. I bought the same sized basket for $12 last weekend at Marche Jean Talon. The taste of the strawberries was amazing. For me this is one of the many wonderful flavours of summer! Walking down to the strawberry patch today they did have a bunch of greenhouses chock full of tomatoes. In the late summer their fields are brimming with fresh corn also. Fresh fruit and vegetables at their roadside market store is a great inexpensive alternative to the grocery store. They also have some selection of fresh dessert pies and relishes and other canned delights. Parking is limited and it fills up fast. I'd recommend coming earlier in the day. After 11 AM the lot is full and much busier. There is a small playground area for kids and picnic benches if you want to bring a lunch and make a great family activity out of it. A terrific outdoor activity for a few hours and place to stop in and get a taste of summer!

They have a great selection of pumpkins as well and are reasonably priced (2 big ones and a small one for about $12). Parking here is a bit of a chore at times but if you can handle that, I definitely recommend. It does get busy as people coming in don't want to go to the North Shore for these type of activities.

The selection is not gigantic and it's not the kind of place to linger about, I like the overall effect for me since I just buy a couple of items and go, rather than lounging and buying everything left and right.

The veggies and fruit are always in great shape, no hidden half rotten ones in the packages. The tiny shop is stacked with all kinds of treasures, delicious pesto, oils, teas, chocolates, pastas. The best thing about this shop though is the owners and staff. They are so warm and friendly, they pop their heads around the corner to see if you need help finding things, they wave when you walk by, and they are always outside making their fruit displays shine. Super happy to have them in the neighbourhood!

Although they are open year round Quinn farm gets…read morethe most amount of people during autumn We had planned a family outing to pick apples and pumpkins. Because of covid you need to buy tickets ahead of time and you get a time slot to go enjoy the farm. The entry fee is 10$ per person. Once you arrive you get a bracelet and can pick up any prepaid bags for you apples or you can pay for them there. You can then check out some of the farm animals or let the kids use the slide and climb around the play area. Once your ready to pick the apples or pumpkins or even corn, you hop on the tractor and then pick your stop to get off at when they announce what fruits/veggies are available. You get to pick them and take them home ! They have washing stations for the veg as well. Once your done wait for the tractor to pick you up and head back home and bake your heart away !

I really enjoyed my experience at Quinn Farm. I came here with my family for pumpkin picking, but…read morethere was much more to see than just pumpkins! The entrance fee is 8$ per person. Once you're in the farm, you can go see some cute farm animals. There is also a big kiosk where they sell products made in-house, those are extremely overpriced! A truck brings you to a pumpkin patch. There are various kinds of squash and pumpkins, all priced very fairly. There was also apple picking available, but that is also overpriced. It costs $11 for a little bag, which is 3 to 4 dollars at the grocery store! Perhaps bringing the price down would entice people to buy more. In general, it's a nice farm with very friendly workers. A great place to go with your significant other, family, friends, kids, anyone! You just have to choose what you want to purchase.

When asked why the oranges were not good at all, was informed they're Egyptian grown and sub par. When asked why not, as in the past, import Jaffa oranges (btw grown by both Arab and Jewish Israelis) was told new owners say if the product is from Israel, they won't buy it. Very disturbing to know that this place will not procure the best fruit and/or vegetables if it's produced in Israel. Next door is Chez Louis and they source the best fruits and vegetables from countries around the world, including Israel. They supply Montreal's finest restaurants.

Stumbled across this busy farmers market when I was in Cote des Neiges. I was immediately drawn in…read moreand had to see what all the rush was about. There is a mix of produce, from what you can find in the supermarkets (same packaging etc) to a lot of produce from local farms which was lovely to see. Great selection of berries and tomatoes... super large tomatoes on the vine that looked divine! For me, what stood out the most was the large selection of local honey - I have found it difficult to find this in shops/supermarkets but this market has a good variety of honey from different flowers and farms. I also noticed that the market is open until late, ideal for students and locals in the area!

Excellent produce section and they usually pick and carry harder-to-find produce here like the blink-and-they-are-gone yellow Rainier cherries that come from Washington state, the Saturn peaches and sea asparagus (or sea beans) which I love having with salmon. Even the non-produce selection is pretty damn good. They carry Bilbouquet ice cream, Rittensport chocolates and Banania chocolate-banana milk powder from France. Prices can be high so it's worth keeping your eye out for their weekly specials which they highlight on their Facebook page.
