Resumen :

Anne Berthet, an agronomist and householder in southern France near Aix-en-Provence explains why she joined a box scheme back in 2007 to get her weekly supply of organic vegetables. Anne wanted to know where her family’s food was coming from, to reassure herself about the quality of food and to join a group of like-minded people aiming to support local farmers. She explains how consumers elsewhere might benefit from similar schemes, by joining existing ones or setting them up. She calls on national and European decision makers to heed the huge potential to feed people with locally grown, high quality produce.
