La Fromagerie les Folies Bergères – Christian and Maggie are ex-military. Disciplined, full of initiative and possessing a solid work ethic. This is a great combination to succeed in farming. Both entrepreneurs hold degrees and formal training in agriculture. Christian also has training in environmental protection and Maggie has trained as a cheese-maker.
We started milking sheep in 1999 and sold ewe’s milk to several cheese factories in Quebec. Unfortunately the Listeriosis Crisis in 2008 affected all artisan cheese factories and demand for milk literally evaporated. At this point, a critical decision had to be made. End milking or process our milk into cheese and continue. Maggie and Christian decided to continue and our cheese factory les folies bergères was born.
