Sustainability, eco-friendly products are not mere trending words in today’s times, but they are the need of the hour. Without becoming environmentally friendly, humans will only cause harm to nature and, as a result, harm themselves. Understanding this need, Farmers Market was organized.

The event was a grand tribute to the local businesses, sustainability, and eco-friendliness.

It was organized at Café Na-Ru-Meg.

The event was curated by Sanchita Kushary Bose and Luna Chatterjee.

On display were artisanal foods, organic farm fresh products, handcrafted goods, organic skincare, and sustainable lifestyle products.

The participating brands at the two-day event were The August Born Bakery, Eastward Coffee, Monpakhi Organics, Flora’s Organic, The Tiny Loom, Frozen Affair, Meraki Cheese, Daroonjinish (Presenting partner), Zoomteaography, Goppo Borir Hassel, Triveni Meat, Organicoasis, and Arkanic Private Limited (gifting partner).

Daroonjinish is spearheaded by Poonam Seth. They work with Sabai grass and provide work for low-income group women from Bengal, Orissa, Kutch & Rajasthan. They infuse embroidery work & dokra. Their products are mostly sold in Australia and other parts of Europe.

The second day of this initiative was enlivened by a soulful live music session. Titled Monsoon Melodies, the session saw the spirited performances by Arijit, Ashmita, and Abhishek.

RJ Raja delivered a poetry performance and kept the audience hooked.

We live in the world of e-commerce. However, this wonderful initiative was a welcome break from the fast-paced life and brought the audience back to its roots.

A great initiative indeed!!
