An Organic Marketing Shed was dedicated at the Super Market in Zunheboto on September 29.

The programme commenced with an invocation by Councillor, ZTC, Hilika Y Yeptho, followed by a short speech by Councillor (Advisor), ZTC, Hekuto Zhimo.

The consecration and blessing of the marketing shed was performed by Kupuli Achumi, Secretary Pastor, Project (W), while the newly established marketing shed was formally unveiled by Chairperson, ZTC, K Herato Sukhalu.

The Organic Marketing Shed is expected to provide a dedicated and accessible space for local farmers and producers to market and sell organically grown agricultural products directly to consumers. The initiative will help promote organic farming, provide better market access for local producers, encourage healthier food choices, and support sustainable livelihoods within the community.
