Brief History

Acadieville Gardens is a family enterprise founded in 1980, when Donald Daigle started out by planting 400 strawberry plants. A few years later, he planted several acres of Brussels sprouts and broccoli for the Rogersville Brussels sprouts cooperative. More vegetables were added over the years including cabbage, cauliflower, turnips, pumpkins, tomatoes and potatoes. His wife, Viola, did the bookkeeping for the farm. They have five children: Jérémi, Brigitte, Simon, Émilie and Alexandre.
