A tartan. "grey is for the wisdom of the elders, stability of traditions and the memory of gestures passed down from mother to daughter; blue reflects the pride of belonging to a strong community, rooted in the history of the former City of Saint-Pierre; black underlines the depth of heritage, the quiet strength of the women who built, taught and preserved the know-how; red is for the passion, commitment and human warmth that have animated the Cercles de Fermières since 1915 and white is intended to represent the purity of intentions, authenticity of the gestures transmitted and truth shared between generations."
