A farm helps people eat well – level 1

A farm helps people eat well

26-01-2026 07:00

An urban farm in Paris helps local people. It gives work, food, and fun activities. Families, children, and older people visit the farm. People feel closer to each other there.

Every week, the farm has a food market. People pay different prices. People with less money pay less. This helps many people buy fresh food.

Older people with little money use the market often. The farm helps them eat well and feel safe. The city likes this idea and wants more places like it.

Difficult words: urban (about a city or town), different (not the same), market (a place to buy food).

You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.

What pricing strategy does the weekly food market use to make fresh food accessible to low-income customers?
