About Ferme Guyon
A Unique Agritourism Destination in Chambly
Located in Chambly, in the Montérégie region on Montreal's South Shore, Ferme Guyon is an agritourism destination that brings together a farmers' market, a garden center, an educational farm, a butterfly garden, and several family-friendly activities all in one place.
For over 15 years, our mission has been to help people discover the riches of Quebec's local countryside, bring families closer to the world of agriculture, and create a place where it's a pleasure to learn, taste, garden, and enjoy nature.
Whether you come to buy local products, meet the animals, visit the butterfly garden, or simply spend quality time with your family, Ferme Guyon welcomes you year-round in a warm and inspiring setting.
A Family Story
After achieving tremendous entrepreneurial success with Unibroue, André Dion decided to pursue a very different dream: to create a place where families could spend an entire day together.
In 2010, he founded Ferme Guyon with his son Sébastien. Together, they envisioned a place that would bring together local products, horticulture, culinary discoveries, and educational activities.
Today, Sébastien Dion carries on this vision as president and CEO.
Why the name Ferme Guyon?
Having set out from Mortagne in Lower Normandy in June 1634, Jean Guyon—the first Dion ancestor to set foot in America—reached the mouth of the St. Lawrence River after a two-month voyage.
Jean Guyon thus became one of the first farming settlers to be granted fiefs in the Seigneurie de Beauport. Jean and his wife Mathurine had eight children, including six sons who would go on to produce a host of descendants for the colony. The surname Guyon is not very common in Quebec, as most of the descendants bear the name Dion, such as André and Sébastien, the initiators of the project.
