A cold morning at Domboshava Showground Market.

At the market and transport used scotch carts pulled by oxen.

Cows being sold at the market in the financial crisis of 2009.

Even baskets and other modern wares found their way at the market.

Goats and chickens in the same place and manure used in the garden.

VaMurehwa even had grapes in his organic garden, how awesome!

Many faces at the market.

Clothing for sale at the Domboshava Showgrounds market.

Most of these women became my friends and inspired me to start women groups leading to the creation of Domboshava Community Project.

Mushrooms from the forest and bananas from the homesteads found their way at the Showground market but displayed on the ground.

Organic garden of Sekuru Murehwa in Domboshava, Zimbabwe.

Other vendors were into clothing too so competition.

Proud family with their permaculture home built from natural materials.

Proud Permaculturalist Sekuru Murehwa.

Seeing this inspired Sylvia Hove, founder of the Domboshava Community Project, to improve on the quality and conditions of the market place.
