The apple is one the most chemically sprayed fruits harvested in Québec. As apple growers, we’ve taken it upon ourselves to do differently. By planting the orchard from scratch we were able to control all aspects of its development, from enriching the soil to treatments used on the fruit.
We practice Organic Farming. This process of production involves working while respecting nature and achieving a balanced ecosystem. Feeding the soil with natural elements instead of feeding the trees with chemical fertilizers. Increasing the beneficial insect population instead of destroying enemy insects with chemical pesticides. The ultimate goal is to harvest healthy fruit with the freshness and good taste that nature intended it to have.
🌸 June marks the start of summer in the Northern Hemisphere and contains the summer solstice, the day with the most daylight hours. June is also when plants and flora are sprouting and blooming, its a beginning and an awakening. What Blooms in June? Magnolia, Echinacea, water lilies, day lilies, and so much more!
