Forest products

Forest products are offered by the Vitaforêt workshop.

The Vitaforêt workshop has been offering training in the identification and picking of wild plants and mushrooms since 2017 at the gardens of theÉcoumène.

Dried and processed products of the Vitaforêt workshop come from wild harvests in the rich forest and fields of Ecoumene Gardens and the Lanaudière region.

They are now available in the store all year round depending on nature's supply and while stocks last.

The plants and mushrooms are carefully picked by hand by Céline Bouchard, professional forest picker, inspired by the quality and sensitivity of responsible harvesting on a human scale.
