ENvertS, the green association of ENS de Lyon runs a community-supported agriculture (CSA). It offers baskets of fruit and vegetables, bread and other products such as cheese and eggs, direct from local, environmentally-friendly producers.
The CSA is not an intermediary and takes no percentage of sales. It aims to bring together local farmers and consumers who want to adopt healthy practices that respect ecosystems.
