In 2003, Dominic Lamontagne and his wife founded the Naked Lunch Gastronomie in Montreal, where traditional catering meets ready-to-eat canned goods. The adventure ended in 2012 when Dominic and his family moved to Sainte-Lucie-des-Laurentides to build a small artisanal farm that would allow them to feed a gourmet countryside restaurant. The project turned out to be impractical and led to the publication of the book “La ferme impossible” (foreword by Joel Salatin), an essay published by Écosociété in 2015, and then the practical guide “L’artisan fermier” (the "Artisan Farmer", foreword by Marc Séguin), published in 2019 with this same publisher. Since then, the couple has campaigned tirelessly for the legalization of small-scale artisanal farming.
