The ability to select a good peat bog is a talent that comes from years of experience - a talent developed by Acadian Peat Moss over the past three decades. Elphège Chiasson started Acadian Peat Moss in 1965 near Lamèque. With his family, he worked hard and succeeded at producing top-quality peat moss. Soon, he developed a loyal market and was amongst the first to export to foreign countries. 

A man with great vision, Elphège has shared his philosophy
of high quality peat moss and excellent client service. After more than 35 years, his vision still prevails as Acadian Peat Moss (1979) Ltd. has become one of Canada's most important peat moss exporters.
