*4.3. Local Marketing*

Both Le Grenier boréal and Lufa Farms demonstrate the social and ecological value of community-supported agriculture. Le Grenier boréal distributes a significant share of its production through baskets, the contents of which are determined based on the products in season. For Lufa Farms, the entire production is marketed through baskets that are distributed mainly through pick-up points located in local businesses throughout the city and delivered by electric vehicles. Thanks to the quantity and variety of food produced in its own greenhouses, or in other farms and processing companies in its network, Lufa Farms is able to offer "Lufavores" the option of customizing their baskets. Le Grenier boréal, for its part, does not limit its marketing to baskets, offering a self-service counter on the cooperative's site and selling in selected local businesses. It also supplies a local company to produce a regional flavored gin. Finally, in 2020, it also began distributing its food via a mobile food stand [45].
