*** Activity exclusively reserved for Université Laval students***

The Bureau de la vie étudiante invites you to visit the Domaine Sainte-Famille, an orchard and vineyard on the Orleans Island. This afternoon of apple picking is the ideal occasion to discover this beautiful island and to enjoy an afternoon in the country side. This will also be a chance, not only to handpick your own apple, but also to try out a vast variety of products from the orchard and from the vineyard in an old-fashioned boutique.

This orchard is located in the village of Sainte-Famille, on Orleans Island, 40 km east of Université Laval and offers a breathtaking view of the Laurentian Mountains. At this time of the year, Lobo and McIntosh varieties of apples will be ripe for self-picking.

For more information on the orchard: https://domainesaintefamille.com/

When: Friday, September 16, 2022. Departure at 2:00 pm between the Ernest-Lemieux and Alphonse-Desjardins pavilions. Return to the same place around 5:45 pm.

Cost: $17 , including transportation, access to the site and a 5 lbs bag (2 kilos) to pick apples. 

Meals: No food services on site. It is recommended to bring your own snacks if needed.

Registration: Online ticket purchase only (credit card) before September 14th, 11:45pm.  Places are limited: first come, first served!
