Summary:
“Tamil Nadu Corporation for Development of Women has many women farmers enrolled in their schemes and under their self-help groups,” explains Subha. The fruit of their labour will be seen this weekend, at their very first all-women organic farmers market. “There are plenty of women farmers, but the ‘farmer’ status is not accorded to them. The All Women Organic Market will be held at Mother Teresa Women’s Complex, Valluvar Kottam High Road, on September 1 and 2. Women are hardly ever portrayed as farmers.”To change this state of affairs, Organic Farmers Market entered into a collaboration with Tamil Nadu Corporation for Development of Women..
