Regional Knowledge Hubs

Knowledge rooted
in your region.

Farmers working in an organic field at golden hour

A hub is a regional/local network that gathers together the relevant stakeholders involved in the agrifood system.

It serves as a focal point for gathering, sharing, and applying organic farming knowledge and practices tailored to the regional characteristics and needs.

It connects local stakeholders to collaboratively transition to a healthier, organic, fairer and more resilient food system.

Create a Hub in your region

Regional hubs represent an opportunity to transform the agri-food system in a region.

At OH FINE, we are convinced that regional hubs represent an opportunity to transform the agri-food system in a region. Creating a regional hub centralizes knowledge and best organic practices, facilitates the transition to sustainable and profitable methods, strengthens the local economy through quality products and short marketing channels, promotes applied innovation in the territory, raises public awareness, and enables the coordination of public policies — thus fostering a healthier, fairer, and more resilient agri-food system.

How OH-FINE established its five hubs

At OH FINE, we have established five regional organic agriculture hubs. This has involved identifying and mobilizing local stakeholders — farmers, retailers, consumers, public authorities, researchers, and advisors — establishing a shared vision, organizing training, innovation, and networking activities, and creating permanent channels for communication and collaboration.

Our strategy for lasting impact

The strategy we have followed at OH-FINE aims to generate continuous value for members, promote cooperation, strengthen local knowledge, and ensure that the hub remains a driving force for the transition to organic agriculture, facilitating the adoption of ecological practices, innovation in production, and the consolidation of a more efficient and competitive regional agri-food system.
