| Sumario: | The Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is a global movement that brings together consumers and farmers around the same ideal: to offer a new form of economy, in a joint action for the production and marketing of food. Thus, to better understand this movement, we propose to investigate the work done by CSA Nossa Horta, an association located in the city of Belo Horizonte (Minas Gerais), which contributes to the construction of a differentiated network for the production and commercialization of food, as well as to analyze the relationships established therein. For this, we opted for qualitative research as a methodological approach, using semi-structured interviews and participant observation. The results showed that CSA Nossa Horta, besides supporting agroecological production and short marketing circuits, seeks greater involvement of its members in its management, besides encouraging and strengthening the relationships of proximity and solidarity between those who produce and those who consume, developing another look for agriculture. |
