La Normandinoise is a typically artisanal, family-run cheese dairy based on a dairy farm located in Normandin, north of Lac St-Jean, whose history dates back to 1979. In 2006, the couple Hélène Cadieux and Yvon Fortin founded the cheese dairy to process farm milk and integrate their sons, Vincent and Maxime, on a long-term basis, thus continuing the adventure with the third generation.
