A whole month without supermarkets

Launched three years ago by an association from canton Neuchâtel, the ‘February without supermarkets’ month has now found participants all over Switzerland, France and Belgium. The idea is not to boycott supermarkets all together but rather to rethink shopping habits and how we can support locally-sourced groceries. We met a young woman who took part in the challenge, who told us how and why she took it on.
