FARM FRESH

The women who come to the Margao municipal market bring farm fresh produce from either their gardens or from neighbouring villages.

JUNGLE JEWELS

These women work day in and out to offer more than just fresh produce and seasonal fruits; they offer the very foundation of a healthy community.

TASTE OF FRESHNESS

The colourful fruits at this youth's stall are always waiting to be juiced and the blender's whirring and its rhythmic churn are an addition to the market's cacophony.
