This paper relies on four case studies designed as short food systems aimed at coupling production, distribution, and consumption to contribute to the ecological transition of the City-Region Île-de-France. Through documentary research and interviews, we explore the growth strategies and sociotechnical innovations these short food systems implemented, and the links that can be established between these innovations, localism strategies, and the regional sustainable development.
