Greening in Family Agriculture, Fairs and Crafts in the Central Part of Rio Grande do Sul
subject: Agricultura Familiar, Feiras, ecologização, região central do rs
description: Greening’s perspective in family agriculture has gained importance in the past few decades. Through the recovery of artisanal producing practices and common knowledge, now seen in the optics of greening, the products from family agriculture have been gaining space and conquering consumers. This paper reflects on the process of transitioning to the agroecological agriculture between family farmers and settlers in the central region of RS and about the experiences found in colonial and agroecological fairs as social spaces where social transactions of products and signs have been taking places between consumers and producers. These fairs are being treated as spaces of realization of producers and products. In these fairs, farmers are treated as the main subjects and are recognized as such by their communities and the produced goods make their way to their final destination: conscious buying and consumption.
