Potager City, the distribution of fresh fruit and vegetable baskets
To create Potager City, it took two young brothers living in the countryside, a vegetable garden in their backyard, a love for vegetables and fruits (good stuff, you know), an attraction to entrepreneurship, and lots of daring! Mix it all together and voilà, this amazing concept was born: a distribution of fresh fruits and vegetables, without any stock. They deliver (by bike) in Paris, and the Affordable tab assures you that you won't break the bank while enjoying yourself!

Kelbongoo, a responsible and supportive food hall
This website, recommended by one of our editors (hi Sarah), offers Parisians a supermarket with fresh, seasonal, local, and affordable products (15 to 20% cheaper than market prices !). Besides being affordable, this concept is incredibly ethical: Kelbongoo provides supportive baskets through partnerships with social centers and Emmaus. It's the epitome of transparency and logistics, a must-try project! Plus, as their Instagram post below explains, they are currently facing difficulties, so let's lend them a helping hand!

Huygens to stock up on natural beauty products
We talk about food, but responsible consumption isn't just about what our bodies consume: it also applies to the beauty products that hydrate and enhance our skin! I did some research, and Huygens, nestled in the marshes, seems to be just the kind of little shop that's highly regarded, for both the composition of its products and its atmosphere and shopkeepers, always taking great care to give good advice. Huygens' recipe: 95 to 100% natural ingredients, often organic ingredients, 95% vegan products and never, ever tested on animals. The quality-price ratio is on point, so take advantage of it!
