I’ve initiated a local decentralized farmers market here in Gothenburg, Sweden. It’s on Facebook for now but I've started working on integrating it into the Steem blockchain. It’s a new phenomenon here in northern Europe but it's really spreading like wildfire!

The demand for locally produced food is higher then ever! We are growing rapidly and got over 3000 members. The concept is a simple but ingenious one that solves the problem small farmers has reaching out with their goods to their customers. With REKO the farmers get free exposure for their goods without any 3rd parties involved.

How does it work?

The farmer post about their goods in the group and then you just comment what you would like to order. Every Thursday between 6-7 pm everyone meets up at the same place in the city. Everything is pre-ordered so no waste nor any need for permits

It's an effective way for the farmer as they don’t have to stand all day on a market but just for an hour. It’s also social and you get to know the person responsible for the food you buy and can ask questions.
