A NEW WORLD OF FARMING IN QUEBEC

Introduction

Meeting the stakeholders of a new, community-based agricultural ecosystem deep in the heart of the Quebec countryside. Maud-Hélène, Christian, Yoana, and Jean-Martin are convinced that another way of farming, another way of life, is possible. They build the farms of tomorrow, come up with new approaches, and embark on new projects that are more humanistic and community-oriented. Confronted with obstacles from trade unions, quotas, bureaucracy, and challenging climatic conditions, these farmers and craftsmen struggle to offer an alternative to intensive farming and processed food. Through a series of portraits, Stéphane Lemardelé brings us the story of these Quebec farmers and artisans who came here to seek a new way of life that is healthier and more mindful of the environment.
