The Outaouais Gourmet Way is the ultimate regional agrotourism experience for food lovers! It’s a great way for visitors to discover the region’s agri-food expertise and products.
Inviting you to diner, It’s in our nature!
This new initiative got off to a solid start with
36 agrotourism destinations throughout the Outaouais. First, there are
19 principal members, those that actually provide the gourmet experience by featuring locally farmed or prepared products in
food tastings or
meals with a distinct regional flavour. Visitors can enjoy a variety of activities, from pick-your-own fruit and vegetable farms to educational displays and guided tours. While visitor-friendly agri-food businesses form the core of the project, there are also
17 associate members that enhance the concept: agrotourism farm operations not offering food, tourist accommodations,
restaurants featuring regional cuisine,
public markets, and food shops offering local specialties.
In concrete terms, the Outaouais Gourmet Way comprises four circuits (northern, southern, eastern and western) that invite visitors to explore and enjoy the local countryside. Choosing local products helps support sustainable development in the region, of course, but it’s also a way to boost the rural economy and strengthen the sense of community within the Outaouais. Celebrating our rich agri-food heritage and agricultural and culinary expertise is a key part of the region’s distinct cultural experience.
