Summary: The objective of this work is to understand how the organic food expansion process in Espírito Santo occurs, understanding it as a central thing, not just as an object of research. The theoretical-methodological approach is used to follow the food from the place of commercialization to the place of production, starting from the experience of the fieldwork with farmers of the organic and agro-ecological fairs of the Greater Vitória metropolitan region, fair of the Jardim Camburi neighborhood. We analyze the movements carried out by the main actors responsible for the expansion of the production chain of organic foods in the state, from the end of the 1960s, when there was alternative to conventional agriculture until the boom of production and circulation of organic foods. The focus is on the fairs, the place WHERE there are direct relationships between the actors. The narrative constructed by the farmers is privileged, therefore, their subjective relation with the produced foodstuffs, the potentialities and difficulties of the production, the relations of kinship between the families of the association with predominance in the fair studied, and the relation of the farmers with the fair.
