Quebec Organic Products: Discover and Taste them and Contribute to our Economy! <\/b><\/h1>\n

In Quebec, there is always a good excuse to gather around a fine table and make delicious culinary discoveries. In this respect, local organic now offer a beautiful diversity of healthy and tasty foods and products to please fine palates as well as the finest gourmets. <\/b><\/p>\n

LOCAL ORGANIC: HEALTHY AND TASTY FOODS FOR THE PLEASURE OF THE SENSES! <\/b><\/h2>\n

It is well known that organic fruit and vegetables taste better. In fact, a recent 2020 consumer survey found that nearly 70% of Quebecers say organic food is tastier. Harvested at maturity, they have time to fill themselves with earthy aromas, which accentuates their much sought-after flavours. As for organic meat, extended periods of ageing give them firmness and flavour.<\/p>\n

Thus, organic foods provide the right conditions for their added value, due, to the quality of soils rich and diversified in organic matter. The result is tasty foods with higher concentrations of certain essential nutrients, such as antioxidants like vitamins C and E, phenols, carotenoids, as well as some minerals such as magnesium, phosphorus, iron and zinc. The richness of the bioavailable nutrients in organic food gives it much of its flavour, which influences consumers\u2019 choice in search of a healthy diet without compromising on taste.<\/p>\n

DISCOVERING LOCAL ORGANIC FOOD FROM YESTERDAY TO TODAY! <\/b><\/h2>\n

Several organic farms in Quebec grow organic fruit, plants and vegetables forgotten from our ancestral heritage, such as Jerusalem artichoke, turmeric root, tuberous chervil (root vegetable), nettle, horseradish and more. Although accessible directly on the farm, in most public markets and by subscription to organic baskets, these varieties had been set aside by the major chains and specialty grocery stores. Thanks to organic, we are now witnessing their gradual return to the shelves of these grocery stores.<\/p>\n

Local organic food represents 3,000 companies that offer us 10,600 organic products, fresh or prepared in Quebec. This diversity delights great chefs in search of originality and special flavours as well as seasoned epicureans for whom eating well and cooking delectable recipes is essential.<\/p>\n

LOCAL ORGANIC: THE RIGHT THINGS TO ASK FOR EVERYWHERE! <\/b><\/h2>\n

Local organic products, they are increasingly in demand here and deserve their place in our Quebec economy. More and more restaurants and institutions in Quebec have understood this and now offer their customers menus that meet today\u2019s needs.<\/p>\n
