Bio Terre is a long-running Mile End institution built on a clear set of values: sustainability, quality, and care—for the environment, for people, and for the community. For over 20 years, the shop has curated a thoughtful mix of organic produce, bulk pantry staples, local cosmetics, eco-friendly household goods, and non-GMO groceries. Its commitment to zero-waste practices is visible in its refill stations and minimal packaging approach, while its sourcing leans heavily on local farms and producers across Quebec.
Staffed by people who actually believe in what they’re selling, Bio Terre also prioritizes fair trade, responsible fishing, and traceable supply chains. Even surplus food is rerouted to community orgs like Mission Mile End. Housed in a storefront that feels more like a neighbourhood hub than a retail operation, this is the kind of place where lifestyle choices double as quiet acts of resistance.
