LE PETIT MAS: Innovative Agribusiness of Fermented Garlic Scapes
Le Petit Mas has been an organic Quebec-grown garlic producer in the Eastern Townships of the “Music” variety since 1989. Its garlic stands out for its long-lasting freshness, bold taste and great appearance.
Its flagship product, fermented garlic scapes, makes cooking easier. This product lacks the pungency of garlic cloves. For garlic lovers, fermented garlic scapes do not replace garlic cloves, but are an interesting alternative for when you don’t want “garlic breath” or when you want to add a delicate garlic flavour to food. For example, garlic scape butter will be much easier to digest than traditional garlic butter and will not mask the taste of lobster or scampi. Fermented garlic scapes are a seasoning in its own right, one which will please all who love the taste of garlic, and even those who don’t.
A PASSION
In 2013, Marie-Pierre Dubeau and Sébastien Grandmont, a couple in life and in business, took over the family farm from Christiane Massé, who founded Le Petit Mas. Since the acquisition, they have more than doubled the surface area of organic cultivation of Quebec-grown garlic. They are determined to put the Petit Mas garlic and fermented garlic scapes on the restaurant menus and on the family tables of all Quebecers!
