    Excerpt

    We work with a group of 11 market gardeners in living soil in south-east of France .Market gardening on living soil (maraîchage sur sol vivant in French) is both a farmer-led movement initiated by french market gardeners in 2012 and a set of cropping practices that include : reduced tillage, organic matter additions and mulches, green manure and cover crops, plastic covers, and prophylactic weed and pest management. 

    We facilitate farmers exchanges within the group, and with other farmers in the region.

    We also run a participatory action research within the group, so that we co-design and co-evaluate innovative cropping practices on the farms.
