Being a family farmer 

Being a family farmer means being part of one of the largest organic farm networks in the world. What unites the farms in the network are shared values, but also a way of producing and marketing rooted in community supported agriculture: offering organic baskets means taking on the challenge of diversified, local production planned over several weeks of delivery.

Two membership models 

The Network offers two membership models: main farm or associate farm. Each status gives access to different benefits, opportunities and levels of involvement within the RFF, in order to adapt to the reality and needs of each farm.

A custom management platform 

By becoming a Network member, farms also benefit from a management platform designed by and for farmers. In addition to being visible on the network's interactive map, they have access to a web marketing tool offering different features and levels of use according to their needs, in order to effectively support their sales and operations.
