It holds a unique character as it combines social and investment aspects, bringing together community members of various backgrounds and age groups to explore local agricultural products and enjoy educational and recreational activities for all family members. Moreover, the market provides a space for farmers to showcase and sell their products directly to the public, contributing to the support of the local economy and agriculture sector, by promoting agricultural practices and land utilization, which helps strengthen food security in the country.”
