Terminology

Some terms and their definitions.

Solidarische Landwirtschaft (Solidarity Agriculture)

Often shorten to: SoLaWi

A type of organization that funds the production of food directly from farmers. Members buy portions of the upcoming harvest.

Often members can visit the farm and help with tasks.

There is a solidarity aspect, where members can chose to pay more their shares in order to help other members who could not afford to buy shares otherwise.
