RIYADH: The Culinary Arts Commission, in collaboration with the Ministry of Environment, Water and Agriculture and the Northern Borders Region Municipality, will hold a farmers’ market from Oct. 17 to 19 in Al-Musaidiyah Park in Arar.
The market aims to support farmers and workers in the culinary sector by showcasing the region’s agricultural produce and distinguished gastronomic offerings, the Saudi Press Agency reported on Monday.
Local produce, including dates, vegetables, and fruits, famous in the Northern Borders region, will be on display at the market.
An area will be dedicated to families working in the cottage industry where they can present notable dishes and beverages of the area, incorporating local produce.
There will also be accompanying activities, such as live music performances and children’s events, including face painting.
Through this event, the commission seeks to support the farmers’ market as a venue that contributes to the marketing of national products, both locally and globally, providing farmers with the opportunity to sell their products directly to consumers.
