Do your grocery shopping and retrace almost 200 years of food in Montreal! Explore the places that have marked life in the neighbourhood, such as public markets, small grocery stores, and the first grocery chains.
Follow the evolution of products through different eras. Also, see the beginnings of the food processing industry, which develops in response to a basic need: to feed the neighbourhood and the city. It is likewise an occasion to reflect on contemporary issues and note the grassroots initiatives that have been undertaken in the city of the 21st century.
