About Canard du Lac Brome

Canard du Lac Brome has been raising ducks in Knowlton, in the Eastern Townships, since 1912. It sells duck breasts, confit and foie gras in stores across Canada.

It suits home cooks who want to try something beyond chicken, and anyone planning a special meal for the holidays or a dinner party. Duck confit is easy to warm up and pairs well with potatoes cooked in its fat, while a seared breast makes a quick but festive dinner. A visit to Knowlton fits nicely into a Townships road trip. With more than a century in the area, it is a long-standing part of Quebec's food heritage.
