Solidarity with farmers is missing
Hi friends,
When I first read the news about the Russian ban on Armenian produce, my first thought was that the market is going to be flooded with very affordable veggies and fruit, and that everyone in their right mind would buy in bulk and make as many preserves as possible.
I think I’m kind of disappointed that I don’t see any movement of solidarity forming anywhere. I don’t hear any collective support towards the farmers.
Imagine how awesome it would be if hamaynqapetarans organized some fairs or festivals bringing together growers, preserves-makers and buyers. You bet I would stock up.
Anyways, I’m going to buy a bunch of things and go to my grandmas and make an event out of it.
