Nature and Progress Federation

Nature & Progrès is an association that, since 1964, has proposed and implemented an alternative and participatory model of production and consumption integrated into a societal project. It promotes peasant agroecology for agricultural, food and cosmetic production addressing global issues such as climate, biodiversity and the health of living things, enabling producers and local collectives to work from their local context. Its Nature & Progrès mark is an associative mark displayed on environmentally respectful products whose production is based on specifications, a charter and a participatory guarantee system. The association awards its annual mark to more than 1,200 producers and processors of agricultural, food and cosmetic products, and its members commit to short distribution circuits and direct links with producers.
