Join a solidarity farming group (Solawi) near you

Share harvest risk with a local farm

Solidarische Landwirtschaft (Solawi) groups connect households with nearby farms: members pay a fair share, help on field days, and collect weekly veg boxes together.

What you can do

  • Search the Solawi finder for a group near Berlin or your city
  • Visit an open day, meet the farmers, and ask about volunteer shifts and box sizes
  • Bring a friend: many groups need a few more members to balance the season plan

How it works

You sign a seasonal contract with the farm collective, not a supermarket supplier. Work days might include planting, weeding, or packing boxes; harvest shares reflect what the field actually yields.

Why it matters

Solawi keeps small farms on the land and gives city residents a direct stake in how food is grown.
