Take a short trip down to the local farmer’s market in La Chute Quebec

Open throughout the year, the La Chute farmers market contains everything you’re looking for. From food, clothes, shoes, tools, this huge market is definitely something worth seeing. They are most famous for their selling of antiques, but you should arrive early because these sell out really quickly. So spend the day taking it all in, and spend the evening at one of their restaurants or bars with your friends or partner!
