Healthy Basket started in 2001 as a project by the American University of Beirut to improve Lebanese farmers’ livelihood in rural areas, preserving the environment and protecting human health by adopting organic agriculture as a key strategy. Fresh , certified organic fruits and vegetables sold by HB are produced by small farmers throughout Lebanon, closely supervised by the internationally accredited Lebanese Certification body “LibanCert”.
CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) is a universal concept deserving increased recognition and application. Equally empowering to both the community and the farmers, CSA offers solutions to common problems facing farmers and communities worldwide. “(Robyn Van En, 1992)
