Descripción
This guided visit followed by an exploration of the public market in Cap-Rouge or Lévis is a new offering. You'll be among the first to experience this History, Food Tasting and Public Market tour.
This guided tour followed by an exploration of the Cap-Rouge Public Market has been offered since the summer of 2025, taking place on Saturdays in July and August.
On Saturday mornings, we meet at Cartier-Roberval Park at the end of Chemin Saint-Louis. When exploring this archeological site, the view from up there and the explanations about the establishment of one of the first settlements make the trip worthwhile.
We then head to the Cap-Rouge mural to put the historical aspect of this first settlement into context.
Continuing on, we head to Rue Provancher to see the historic houses and learn about development during the era of the first seigneuries. We then head to the Maison Provancher to learn about the discoveries of this priest who was also a botanist and entomologist. His twenty years spent in Cap-Rouge make this botanical discovery worthwhile. A stop at the Church of Cap-Rouge offers the chance to discover the surrounding nature and get a different view of the Tracel.
We'll finish by visiting the Cap-Rouge Public Market, which is in its seventh season. A food tasting of local products prepared by the onsite processors and farmers. This food tasting platter includes a protein, fresh vegetables and a local drink. These natural or processed products vary from week to week, just as the farmers and vendors at the market change from week to week.
Once the tour is over, you'll have until 1:00 p.m. to shop if you wish. Our tour includes a food tasting with small bites and a still or sparkling drink to be enjoyed on site.
A great opportunity to support farmers, merchants and processors from the Quebec City, Lévis, Portneuf and Bellechasse regions. Enjoy this tour to discover Québec's local produce and the natural beauty of Cap-Rouge.
