The initiative aims to provide residents with access to fresh, locally grown organic produce while creating new opportunities for small-scale growers and businesses. The market will feature a range of organic items, including:
- Fresh fruits & vegetables
- Fruit-based produce

Applications Now Open
The market will be managed by the Directorate of Municipal Administration (DMA), which is responsible for receiving applications from interested sellers. The last date for submission is 12 September 2025.
Goals of the Organic Market
Officials emphasized that the project is designed to:
- Promote healthy eating habits among citizens
- Ensure direct access to organically grown produce
- Provide fair pricing by minimizing the role of middlemen
