A North American first: the very first reference work dedicated to truffle production has been published!

Dear growers, partners, and curious enthusiasts,
It is with immense pride that we present the brand-new Guide to Truffle Cultivation in North America, created in collaboration with the Centre de référence en agriculture et agroalimentaire du Québec (CRAAQ).
Far more than just an introduction to trufflecultivation, this guide provides a comprehensive management framework tailored to the soils, climate, and production conditions unique to North America. It guides growers, aspiring truffle farmers, and their advisors through the various stages of developing a truffle orchard: understanding the truffle ecosystem, site selection, establishment, maintenance, monitoring, harvesting, and economic outlook.
For the first time, the knowlledge gained from research, field trials, and experience in our truffle orchards is brought together in a single volume. This publication marks a major milestone for our young industry and helps establish truffle cultivation as a credible, structured agricultural production with a promising future.
Behind this guide are years of observation, research, collaboration, and knowledge sharing. We would like to acknowledge the outstanding work of the authors, Sophie Devost and Jérôme Quirion, as well as the valuable contribution of Véronique Cloutier in revising the book. Their expertise and rigor have made it possible to create a reference truly adapted to the realities of our region.
Whether you already own a truffle orchard, are considering an establishment project, are an agronomist, an advisor, or simplycurious to discover the potential of this emerging crop, this guide will help you make better-informed decisions and move forward with solid guidance.
A long-awaited reference. Local expertise. A practical tool for building the truffle orchards of tomorrow. Order yours now!
