Become a Member

By subscribing to Dikken el Mazraa, you are directly supporting the local economy by shopping (mostly but not exclusively) local products from small producers transitionning (or that have already transitioned) to sustainable and eco-friendly practices .

You will also have access to specialty products that are not widely available in the market, along with the possibility of being delivered and receiving weekly updates on available fresh products.

In addition, perhaps the most important aspect of subscribing and being a member is granting food security to members of the community with lower purchasing power or in vulnerable conditions.

If you are a member facing financial challenges, you can undergo our vulnerability assessment to qualify for discounts on your purchases.
