About Première Moisson

Première Moisson is an artisan bakery chain that was born at Atwater Market in 1992. It is known for its breads, its viennoiseries like croissants, and its deli counter. Today the company is based in Baie-D'Urfé, on Montreal's West Island.

It suits weekend breakfasts, picnic supplies and last-minute hosting. A fresh loaf and a few pastries are an easy thing to bring to a brunch or a family visit. A stop at Atwater Market, where it all began, fits nicely with a walk along the Lachine Canal.
