Category(ies): Agricultural Fair
During the Agricultural Fair, Real Savage Pro Wrestling is bringing the action to the Village, and some stories could take some truly incredible turns!
But beware of appearances, because during this ultimate showdown, friends will be betrayed, alliances will be broken, while others will be forged stronger than ever. And some characters may finally reveal their true colours!
The only certainty is that no one can predict what’s coming! Perhaps the past isn’t dead after all…
Guided tour with tastings
Witness firsthand the evolution of the traditional Acadian diet, from 1770 to 1950, by visiting the kitchens and gardens of historic homes and tasting dishes and ingredients essential to the survival of Acadian ancestors.
This guided tour includes seven tastings, followed by an Acadian *fricot* dinner served at the Café-Bistro du Village.
