AGRIFOOD
Buying local
The region is made up of more than 500 independent businesses that bring Brome-Missisquoi’s municipalities to life. Artists, farmers, craftspeople, restaurant owners and merchants have decided to invest and tackle the challenge of making a living among the people who live in and visit the region. Half of each dollar spent in a business in the region stays in the area and contributes to invigorating and protecting the local colour and know-how.
