This project lays its basis on a sustainable production model that considers local food production and consumption top priorities. At present, the project organizes activities at "La Costa" communal vegetable garden (Providencia-Córdoba), where food is produced for the participating families, and promotes the manufacturing of products that are later sold in fairs. Thus, students, teachers and families from the “Bajo Providencia” neighborhood work together in the production and commercialization of these products. This process involves conceiving ideas, collecting supplies and expanding the participants’ knowledge to finally manufacture and market good quality products. Fairs are not just places to buy and sell goods; they are spaces in which cultural, social and symbolic capitals are at play. These elements are highly valued for the families living in Bajo Providencia who are frequently excluded from these processes. In this experience, the market stall worked as a resource to spread information about the project's mainstays, to promote the interaction between the neighbours and the organizations, and to foster the appreciation of fairs and stalls as ways to manage collective undertakings that favour family economies. The "Colectivo Semilla" mediated in this process.             El objetivo del artículo es describir la experiencia de participación en ferias barriales como espacios que fomentan la economía popular, en el marco del proyecto de extensión “Colectivo Semilla”. Este proyecto se enmarca en un modelo productivo sostenible que prioriza la producción y el consumo local de alimentos. En la actualidad, articula actividades en la huerta comunitaria “La Costa” de barrio Providencia-Córdoba, donde se producen alimentos que abastecen a las familias participantes y propician la elaboración de productos que posteriormente se comercializan en puestos de ferias. De manera conjunta, estudiantes, docentes y familias de Bajo Providencia trabajan en su producción y comercialización, cuyo proceso incluye la ideación, la recolección de insumos y la ampliación de conocimientos para, finalmente, manufacturar y comercializar un producto de calidad. Las ferias no se limitan solo a la compra-venta de bienes, sino que movilizan capital cultural, social y simbólico de suma importancia para las familias de Bajo Providencia, que habitualmente resultan excluidas de estos procesos. En esta experiencia, el puesto sirvió de espacio para difundir información sobre los ejes del proyecto, fomentó la interacción entre vecines del barrio y organizaciones, y permitió que las familias participantes, valoricen las ferias y los puestos como formas de gestionar emprendimientos colectivos que favorezcan sus economías. El Colectivo Semilla operó como facilitador del proceso.
