Este trabajo da cuenta del trabajo de extensión con productores florícolas familiares en Colonia Las Banderitas, Partido de La Plata por el lapso de diez años. El eje transversal de la intervención se focaliza en las estrategias utilizadas por los productores para el financiamiento y capitalización de las unidades productivas. La tarea de extensión se inicia con la constitución de grupos de microcréditos del Banco Social de la Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias y Forestales, para posteriormente conformar una Asociación Civil con el objeto de gestionar proyectos propios. El artículo describe y analiza el camino recorrido por el grupo, los logros y dificultades transitadas así como los factores que promovieron la conformación y perdurabilidad de la organización hasta la actualidad. Se rescata el proceso autogestivo, así como la generación de confianza entre los integrantes en base al trabajo realizado en el grupo, lo que permitió avanzar tanto en el aspecto organizativo como en la mejora de los sistemas productivos. Se destaca la tarea del extensionista, el cual aportó como facilitador del proceso. El análisis se realiza a partir de un estudio de caso con una metodología de tipo cualitativa.
