3rd Edition of the Fête des récoltes de Saint-Laurent

Saint-Laurent, September 1, 2022 – Following the success of the first two editions, the Fête des récoltes de Saint-Laurent—organized by VertCité, in collaboration with the Arrondissement de Saint-Laurent—will be back again this year for a third edition on Saturday, September 10, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., at Parc Gohier.

This large urban agriculture fair will provide visitors with the opportunity to discover the various aspects of gardening, a particularly active field of activity in Montréal, including transforming crops into shelf-stable products, vegetable plants, gardening tools, growing mushrooms in an urban environment, flower farming, beekeeping and breeding insects for human consumption.

Highlights

Numerous artisans will be on site during this Harvest Fest day that promises to be as instructive as it is festive.

On the program:

a farmer’s market
a seed exchange between residents (grainothèque)
a corn roast starting at noon
food booths with flavours from all over the world.

There will also be conferences on pollinators, fruit trees, fall planting, hops and the Montréal melon. In addition, there will be entertainment by Drôldadon and La Chasse Balcon with street theatre and traditional Québec music as well as traditional Vietnamese performances in the morning.

Discover the detailed program of the event on VertCité’s Facebook page. The event will take place rain or shine.

Celebrate gardening all year round

After Cultivons Saint-Laurent, which opened the season in Parc Beaudet, this Harvest Fest is now the event not to be missed in the month of September for all gardening enthusiasts and nature lovers in general.
