Farm-to-table is a movement in the restaurant industry that means the food on the table came directly from a specific farm without going through a distributor, store, or market along the way.
Other names include locally-sourced, farm-fresh, and farm-to-fork (if you really want to get specific), and it relates to a direct relationship between a farm and a restaurant.
Farmers benefit from the movement by being able to reap more of the profit their goods can earn and foodies can enjoy knowing their food will be treated and cooked as fresh as possible with the highest of qualities.
While farm-to-table doesn’t necessarily mean a heftier price tag, items are often delivered to the restaurant and cooked within hours of being harvested.
The results are very tasty and a growing number of places are adapting the new farm-to-table approach. With that said, here are some restaurants in Montreal that pride themselves on delivering your meal from the farm to your plate.
