A project between Slow Food and IFOAM to support the develpment and implementation of the Participatory Guarantee Systems (PGS)
The Krakow Earth Market (Targ Pietruszkowy) became the pilot project to prove the benefits of setting a participatory guarantee system in place.
Earth Markets are composed of producers that embrace the Slow Food philosophy worldwide. They are unique agoras where people can buy high-quality products, build communities, open to creative exchanges, and find education.
Social relationships and collaboration are at the foundation of Participatory Guarantee Systems (PGS), a quality certification method alternative and complementary to third-party certification that Slow Food has been studying and implementing since 2018.
