According to the International Federation for Organic Agricultural Movements (IFOAM), France is the third-largest market for organic products. Just as in the states, the trend towards organic foods is shifting in France. The growth of the organic market in France has been steady in the past decade and exponential in just the past year alone. Traditional French cuisine relies on fruit, vegetables and meat either grown at home or from local farms. Of course, supermarkets now offer many imported varieties and the trend for processed ready meals are growing, but farmers’ markets are still popular and there is a keen focus on the ‘terroir’ or origin of the food.
If you’re a fan of organic food, this is another reason to visit Paris! I’d love to help you plan your trip to Paris so be sure to pick up the phone and call me or send me an email.
