A model of social organization based on strengthening ties between farmers and consumers is CSA - Community that Supports Agriculture, which works in a different logic to conventional agricultural production, establishing relationships that prioritize the well-being of the community at the center of economic actions. It has proved to be an important tool linking the desire of part of the population to consume pesticide-free food to organic / agroecological food producers, guaranteeing the sustainability and safety of the activity of the family rural producer. The objective of this work was to document the formation of the CSA in Rondonópolis - Mato Grosso, also bringing general information about the CSA, its development in Brazil, its principles and challenges. The methodology used was the bibliographic and documentary survey. It was found that the consuming public participating in the meetings for the formation of the CSA in Rondonópolis showed interest in becoming a co-producer. Currently, about 80 families are served weekly by a single producer, although there are other producers preparing to meet the requirements of CSA. Thus, there is a need for projects that enable more producers with conditions and skills to meet the requirements required by this system, to serve a greater number of families. The creation of CSA in Rondonópolis allows producers to advance in the production of healthy pesticide-free foods, motivating consumers / co-producers to consume these foods and contribute to the spread and strengthening of this social movement in the region.
