“Alimente Quem o Alimenta” brings together consumers and local producers

30.04.2020

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Ministry of Agriculture created a platform, Alimente Quem or Alimenta, to bring together local producers and consumers. This partnership between the Ministry of Agriculture and the National Rural Network, a Minha Terra Federation, local action groups and municipalities aims to support and streamline the flow of local and fresh products.

Any producer can register on the platform and advertise products and baskets available for ordering and delivery. In turn, consumers can search for products, districts and counties, and find contact with the nearest producers.

The platform, which already has more than 700 producers registered, also provides information on initiatives, markets and hygiene rules and regulations.
