Auberge Chateau Du Lac

Bleu Lavand

by sbiswas

This is a lavendar farm in Fitch Bay - about 15 min from Magog. Fitch Bay is not available as a location so I'm listing it under Magog. The farm grows several varieties of lavendar for use as ingredients in edible and non-edible products. A tour cost us $5 each. There's a good film about how they set up the farm in this unlikely area as a labour of love. If you time it right, you can also see them stuff the boiler full lavender to get the essential oils out. Probably the best time to come is at the end of July when the lavendar is in full bloom. We saw partially cut lavendar on Aug 9 2008. You can also picnic here anytime. There is a store on location where you can purchase their products - moisturizers, spritzers, teas, honey, shampoo for your spoiled but soon to be fragrant dog, etc. You can also order their products online or get them at several retailers throughout Quebec, including the Museum of Civilization in Gatineau (across the river from Ottawa).

"A string of picturesque villages"

"Magog"

There's a little bit of everything for everyone in the Eastern Townships, Quebec's charming Anglo-Saxon region. Nature, culture, sports and arts are all part of life in and around the town of Magog, located at the northern end of Lake Memphremagog, about 2 hours away from Montreal.

You will love your stay in this beautiful Quebec countryside!

"North Hatley"

This lovely New England-style village is located a short drive away from Magog. North Hatley, known for the tranquility offered by its surroundings and the beautiful Lake Massawippi, has been a resort spot for over 100 years. Come discover why so many people have fallen in love with this little town "crafted in heaven".
