La Ferme Tournevent is a family-owned business established in 2008, specializing in organic and gluten-free products. The farm is located in Hébertville, Lac-Saint-Jean, and cultivates a variety of crops including canola, industrial hemp, camelina, golden and brown flax, buckwheat, yellow peas, lentils, as well as garlic and garlic flowers.
