About Fromagerie du Vieux Saint-François

Fromagerie du Vieux Saint-François is a cheesemaker in Laval's old Saint-François district, on the eastern end of Île Jésus. It is known for goat cheeses, both fresh and aged. The range covers soft, mild fresh cheeses as well as firmer ones with more character.

Fresh goat cheese is easy to use: crumble it on a summer salad, spread it on toast or bake it into a tart. The aged cheeses work well on a board with fruit and crackers. For Montrealers, it is a short drive across the river, and a simple way to buy cheese made close to home.
