FROM FOREST FIREFIGHTER TO PROFESSIONAL GATHERER

Hello! My name is Nicolas, and I am the founder of NordCueille: a company driven by an unconditional love for the wild nature of the Côte-Nord. I discovered the majestic immensity of this northern territory through my job as a forest firefighter. During my career, I had the opportunity to walk hundreds of kilometers of boreal forest and fly over thousands of them!

However, a forest firefighter has a mission that keeps him busy: putting out fires! In doing so, he doesn't have time (and rightly so) to pick delicious blueberries, eat succulent raspberries or harvest appetizing mushrooms! My point is that the boreal forest is magnificent in more than one way. I decided to swap the hose and flames for the knife and forest edibles; a new facet of our north-coast jewel that I wanted to discover and share with you!
