History of the farm

Pousse-menu, established in 1988 by Philippe Robillard, is an ambitious project which attempts to introduce products into the organic food market that substantially improve life quality: notably soil-grown sprouts and germinations.

Our innovative urban farm concept permits a daily harvest of fresh produce that is distributed to the metropolitan Montreal area and to the entire province of Quebec.

Commited to bringing to the public a complete range of living foods, Pousse-Menu represents many companies specialized in organic food for which they act as distributor.

Its increasing concern for the environment has also brought Pousse-Menu to the forefront in the development and implementation of vermicomposting systems.
