Advancing sustainable agriculture via short food supply chains
Together we can envision and create a new food system that promotes sustainable farming practices, strengthens local communities and provides consumers with fresh, seasonal and locally produced food.

At The High Mountains we develop and promote a functional model of Socially Supported Mountain Production (SSMP) in the standards of Community Supported Agriculture (CSA), focusing on the production of mountainous areasbut also on the production of products by actors in Social and Solidarity Economy Social & Solidarity Economy Ecosystem.
It is a system that benefits both farmers and consumers, while contributing to a more sustainable and resilient food production and management system.
Our goal is to create a peer-to-peer, more equitable food system for all
The SSMP model
Ensures better and natural nutrition with fresh and seasonal products.
Promotes local and sustainable agriculture
By connecting consumers with local farmers, we help reduce the carbon footprint associated with transporting food over long distances and encourage environmentally friendly farming practices.
Ensures a stable and sustainable income for people living in mountainous areas
This gives people an incentive to stay and produce on their homeland, thus combating desertification and the decline of the village population.
Motivates young people
To settle in mountain areas and utilize the available mountain farmland, promoting the nutritional value of the products produced in the virgin fields of our mountains.
Provides transparency in the producer-consumer relationship, flexibility of supply and access to a variety of items.
Combats food waste through scheduled production and demand.
Creates new jobs and encourages voluntary initiatives.
Opens a channel of communication, within a mutually supportive network, between the local farmer and the local community.
We select products of
Mountainous production
- High altitude <1000m
- Medium altitude >1000m
- Mountain foothills from 400m to 600m
Social & Solidarity Economy Ecosystem
- Organic farming
- Biodynamic farming
- Permaculture
- Responsible farming
Our intention is to be able to cover the needs of a household in a variety of species, but also in the quantities available, while at the same time the producer has the information in advance about what to grow and in what quantities. In this way, we reduce the risk of production and create a mutually supported network in which each household can obtain, at an ideal value for money, products of a multiple value in terms of taste and nutritional characteristics of those available in the wider retail sector.
