Tours
Slide 1 of 8
Just amazing, the tour guide was so friendly and conversed in both french and English for the group. The hour long tour was very educational and interesting. I loved all the cheese from the tasting as well as the purchased grilled cheese sandwich which comes with maple taffy spread.
What a wonderful fromagerie on the Eastern Townships Cheesemakers Circuit! Definitely a place you'd want to stop and linger, just like I did. Excellent selection of cheese and non-cheese products in a well merchandised store.
Pleasantly surprised by what a lovely cheese facility this is. Welcoming staff and great service. Grilled cheese was fantastic. Sampled some delicious cheeses. Very clean and modern. Store has large selection of Eastern Townships products. Bought cheese, wine and honey! 👍😀🧀🍾 Was a pleasant short drive from Magog. Visited May 25/22
We entered this fromagerie with the intention of buying a number of cheeses for a large family gathering in the evening. We waited a few minutes to be greeted and finally walked to the counter and asked if we could sample some cheeses. We were told by a young woman that we would have to wait. When she brought the cheese samples to the counter and slammed the container down, I knew that things were not going to go well. As an English speaker who speaks some French, I always attempt to use my French one in Quebec. She seemed to stumble a little bit with her English and so I asked in French if she would like to speak French. She said no. In the course of about three minutes, she unwrapped eight cheeses, sliced them, slapped them down in front of us, and mumbled a short explanation of each cheese. My mother and I could barely experience one cheese before she was onto the next. When we asked her about how the cheeses were developed, she told us she had no idea. She was angry, rude, and made it very clear that she did not want to interact with us at all. Needless to say, we left without purchasing any cheese. This was one of the strangest and most unpleasant experiences I have had while visiting the Eastern Townships. July 8 at 3:40 pm. Don’t do this work if you don’t like people! Your guests spend a great deal of money to vacation in this area. How unkind you were. To the manager: train your employees to know about cheese and understand the cheese tasting experience. My mother is 84 and felt insulted by the entire experience.
Fromagerie La Station is an absolute gem. We stopped in to pick up some cheese and charcuterie during our travels, and it turned into one of the highlights of the trip. The cheeses are incredible—rich, flavorful, and clearly crafted with care. Each one we sampled had its own character, and it was hard not to take home more than we could carry. The charcuterie paired perfectly and made for a great picnic on the road. The store itself is welcoming and well laid out, with staff who are happy to guide you through the selection. Beyond that, the location is stunning—the farm sits among rolling fields and beautiful countryside, which makes the visit feel authentic and memorable. It’s the kind of place where you can taste the connection between the land and the food. Definitely worth going out of your way to experience.
Although we didn’t have the chance to join their tour, but we bought some good quality cheese from them n enjoyed them in their terrace. You also could see lots of happy cows around, nice place to visit!
If you are lucky enough to visit the Eastern Townships, this is a "Must Do". We thoroughly enjoyed our morning stop here, learning about their exceptional dairy practices and tasting their delicious cheeses. Laurianne was fantastic, guiding us through a variety of tastings before we landed on our favorites. Their "Discover" self guided tour is very interesting and interactive. It really makes you appreciate the care and dedication that goes into their production. Highly Highly recommend ( I'm sure all of the staff are great, but Laurianne was excellent!!!).
Came to this lovely farm and cheese store as a recommendation from Manoir Hovey front desk. We did a cheese tasting and had their famous grilled cheese sandwich, so good! We went to do the self-tour of the facilities but were met by the owner (who was pulling weeds) and he graciously gave us a personal tour of the facility and history of his family on the farm. He was a perfect host and so informative. We bought a bunch of cheese to take home and it has been excellent as well. So glad we came.

Pastries were warm and soft when we bought them. So yummy!
Mixed feelings about this place. We bought apple juice and apple studel from here. The apple juice was fresh and seemed like it was made there, the apple studel on the other hand was just heated up from Costco. It was the exact same one they sell there. Shame on them! I feel ripped off.
Beautiful landscape, the tower makes it even more breathtaking. The mini-farm is fun for kids and adults, the goats and donkeys are quite friendly. We go every year and I really enjoy it every time. The shop makes amazing bread, pies, tea, apple sauce, apple jelly, you name it they have it and it smells delicious. And the orchard is simply beautiful, go at the right time and the branches are filled with delicious fruits that you can go and pick yourself.
Cute Apple picking with free running animals. Fun spot for the kids!
Awesome family place to go apple picking. Small little petting zoo with cute farm animals, and bouncy house. I got a ton of apples( probably got around 65) for 20 bucks. Can't beat that.
Really disappointed on how the animals are kept. If you do not care about animals rights or their well being then this is the place for you. And no, I did not go apple picking, I left.
Big orchard, a tower, a great view, animals to be pet. A nice place for the family. Wide variety of apples, 20$/bag.
Fun apple picking, little farm for kids, you can buys your pumpkins. .apple pie, apple bread and apple cider and apple juice.

A hundred year history frozen in time. Kudos to the maintenance.
I am American, but I found this site to be very interesting. There are interactive exhibits. There is a very nice and unique movie on him with real artifacts that are lit up during the story.
Guides were very well informed. Great place to visit and understand Canadian history.
Very valuable information. Great presentation skills from the employees working there
(Translated by Google) Nice visit: Original scenography to discover the biography of Louis St Laurent. His father's old-fashioned shop and authentic family home. For the youngest, a play area at the end of the visit. Very beautiful Lions Park 5 minutes walk away, to relax, play and picnic! Perfect day!🇫🇷 (Original) Belle visite: Scénographie originale pour découvrir la biographie de Louis St Laurent. Boutique à l’ancienne de son père et maison familiale authentique. Pour les plus jeunes, un coin jeu en fin de visite. Très beau parc des Lions à 5 mn à pied, pour se détendre, jouer et pique-niquer ! Journée parfaite !🇫🇷
(Translated by Google) Great visit to do, we learn lots of things about Louis Saint Laurent, a former Prime Minister of Canada. And the reception staff are great!!

Excellent selection of apples and related products! Don’t miss the apple chocolate pie! Add a bit of ice cream from Laterie de Coaticook!
This is by far the best place I had the most natural tasting apple pie I had ever eaten. It's so good! I also bought the apple cider wine, and other apple related products that just made my taste glands tingle in pleasure. Enough said. Take the tractor train around the farm and enjoy the ride. Watch how they make the pies, and have a great time.
Very friendly, great atmosphere, great customer service . Would recommend to others
Workers were kind and polite, though they did try to overcharge me (no biggie-only $1). Apples were very high quality (large, juicy, sweet, few defects), though the prices are a little steep ($18 for 10 lbs of honeycrisp). They managed to keep their orchard in pretty good shape despite the drought we had this year, and the apples turned out to be delicious. I'll likely be making a yearly visit! --- Update: This is the third year I've gone. My last review (which I had at 5 stars) was for product located to the north of the orchard; in 2013 and 2014 we were directed to the 2 pitiful rows of honeycrisp on the south side that are right next to the highway. In 2013 the crop was poor and the lady gave us an extra large bag, then with a face as though she were trying to hide, charged us McIntosh price (about half) for the product. A couple of days after I understood why: they weren't juicy, didn't taste like much, and most of them had weird little dots on them. In 2014, the crop looked better and so did their equipments, but there was SO MUCH INSECTICIDE on the apples meaning I was reluctant to even bite into one to see if it was any good. The white film was visible and stinky. Apple trees in the far end had some kind of mildew on them and I really don't know why the orchard doesn't burn these ones to save the rest of the orchard from getting the fungus like I've read you're supposed to do, but that isn't my problem. If I remember, I will come back in a week or so to give my opinion on this year's apples, but so far so good except for the insecticide.
Had a group outing ,but only apple variety remaining was Cortland and Spartan..it was a rainy day so the field trip was cancelled,but had a tasting of apple pie and coffee..plus some apple picking... it's quite far from montreal...about 2 hours by bus..very scenic area..we met the Co owner who has worked there all his life ,was kind to explain and show his operation..a visit us a must...
Employees are helpful and very polite. Great views and apples are juicy.
Well organized and outstanding produce. Surprising amount of dedicated and friendly staff.
Friendly staff, nice selection of apples and large variety of apple products. The apple pies are beautiful - and tasty!

Beautiful spot, wonderful service and delicious wine and food. Highly recommend a visit!
Beautiful! Staff was very knowledgeable and products were all great!
A wonderful winery. We are very glad we stopped there today. The hostess was very knowledgeable and helpful. The wines and food pairings were exceptional. It is worth a visit. We look forward to returning.
Nice location, but they hardly ever work… be cautious about planning a trip to this place… been there twice, every time closed …
Great wine tasting experience.
(Translated by Google) A good place to visit and buy from their shop. The best season to visit is late July and mid August. We didn't have a guide to explain to us but there were people on the ground who accompanied people. (Original) Un bon endroit pour visiter et acheter de leur boutique. La meilleure saison pour visiter est fin de juillet et mi d'août. on n'avait pas un guide pour nous expliquer mais il y a du monde sur terrain qui accompagnent du monde.
(Translated by Google) I would like to write to you what I think of their product. Unfortunately, the restaurant is not accessible for a person in a wheelchair. A threshold. Just one. And yet, their little train is accessible to him. (Original) J'aimerais vous écrire ce que je pense de leur produit. Malheureusement, le restaurant n'est pas accessible pour une personne en fauteuil. Un seuil. Un seul. Et pourtant, leur petit train lui est accessible.

What a wonderful place with tasty apple n pear ciders! The owner was very nice n introduced us variety of their products. I've to admit they have the best apple ice cider I’ve ever tasted!!
Excellent iced cider, but the real draw is the iced *pear* cider, which I've never seen anywhere else. It's very sweet and has an almost smoky flavor, nothing like I've ever tasted before. Yum!
Good service, great prices and very nice fruit and products
I love this place, apples and pears from the three... Everything they sale is good, apple pie, pear pie with chocolate, apple juice is the best... Love, live, love ❤️❤️❤️😀
Very flavourful apple must, definitely worth a visit. Not everyone speaks English here but they happily accommodated my broken French.
Excellent variety of appels and pears are very good. They also have prune in the right season. Nice place to past the afternoon with kids.
Great place to pick plums, pears and apples. They also produce killer jellies and cider
Love this place for apples, and pears !! Yum.yum!!! Was so fun and a quiet place! 🍐🍎

(Translated by Google) The best cherry pies (Original) Les meilleures tartes au cerises
(Translated by Google) When we went there, there was nothing. The lady at reception told us that she had very few harvests and that everything she has sells quickly and that is the reason why she does not advertise herself... The GPS address Google is wrong, the business is across the street, at the end of a long path and the sign at the edge of the street speaks of a cider house. Forget it, there are no organic fruits there. (Original) Quand nous y sommes allés, il n'y avait rien. La dame à l'accueil, nous a dit qu'elle avait très peu de récoltes et que tout ce qu'elle a se vend rapidement et que c'est la raison pour laquelle elle ne se publicise pas... L'adresse gps Google est fausse, le commerce se trouve de l'autre côté de la rue, au bout d'un long chemin et l'affiche en bordure de rue parle d'une cidrerie. Oubliez ça, il n'y a pas de fruits bio là.
(Translated by Google) Excellent products but show off more! (Original) Excellents produits mais mettez vous davantage en valeur !
(Translated by Google) A delight!!! (Original) Un délice!!!
