About the owners and the company’s profile

The valorous owners Johanne Lemire and François Benoit have shared the same passion for plants and nature for more than 30 years. They have been working in alternative medicine for a long time. They owned a health food store in Sherbrooke for 20 years. They have been lecturers in the naturopathy and homeopathy schools (among others for Bio Lonreco, their current commercial distributor). Johanne has also had a private practice in homeopathy, naturopathy and herbalist since 1990 at her Compton office and regulatory affairs consultant (NPN).

The Jardins La Val’heureuse  garden is located in Compton, in the heart of the Coaticook  River Valley in the Eastern Townships, Quebec, Canada. The garden is distinguished by the diversity of its medicinal plants. This farm, certified organic since 1999, sets itself apart with the variety of its healing and decorative plants as well as with the originality of its landscaping. A globalist approach favours a natural ecosystem; a pond attracts invaluable batrachians and a wide range of winged aquatic fauna.

Plantations and harvests are carried out according to the seasons by respecting the evolution and the blooming of every plant. Therefore, plants are hand-picked when they are at their full vitality potential, by taking into account the biodynamic philosophy. The transformations are done in a modern transformation building. A large efficient dryer guarantees the conservation of flavors, pigments and therapeutic values of dried plants.

The biggest activity at Jardins Val’heureuse is to produce more than thirty single plants extracts and several compound formulas made mostly with fresh plants which are carefully picked and macerated in sugar cane alcohol. This stage allows for the maximum extraction of the active principles, a high vibratory rate and full energy potential.
