Saison 4

The Agricultural Center, the beating heart of urban agriculture

La Centrale agricole, le coeur battant de l'agriculture urbaine

Did you know that the largest urban agriculture cooperative in the WORLD is located right here in Quebec?

Yes indeed! La Centrale agricole, located in the heart of the Ahuntsic-Cartierville borough of Montreal, is an incredible place where a wide range of young businesses in urban agriculture, food processing, the circular economy, and so much more are developing!

To kick off the new season of Idées Radicules in style, we wanted to talk about this beating heart of urban agriculture with two exciting guests: Mathieu Gauthier, co-founder of Coop Boomerang, and LN Saint-Jacques, former CEO of the Centrale Agricole.

Enjoy listening to this first episode of season 4 of the podcast!
