Here, we encourage the new generation! Kiosques de la Relève are back for the season 2024 at the Jean-Talon, Atwater and Maisonneuve markets this summer! These ready-to-use kiosks, which can be rented by the day, welcome young farmers and processors, enabling them to experience direct marketing and exchange ideas with the locavore public eager to discover new things. This initiative of the Montreal Public Markets responds to the needs of these young businesses, adapting to their reality and facilitating their access to major Montreal markets.
Once again this year, the Union des producteurs agricoles is supporting the next generation of farmers by providing to them financial assistance equivalent to 50% of rental costs. From May 2 to October 27, come and meet Quebec’s next generation of farmers who are spending the summer at the markets!
“Every year, we’re delighted of our experience at the Kiosques de la Relève. We love the effervescent atmosphere of the crowds, the reunion with our regular customers, and the visible interest of passers-by for our products! Sharing our harvests with customers every saturday is everytime a day of celebration!“
Félix Massé from Les Jardins de la Belle Verte
“I’m delighted to be part of the Kiosques de la Relève for a second consecutive season. It allows me to build customer loyalty by offering reliable products, while continuing to represent Quebec’s next generation of farmers and florists. It’s important for me to offer a product that I’m proud of and which is part of a sustainable and environmental vision, but also that customers feel they’re part of the change too!”
