SHILLONG: North East Slow Food & Agrobiodiversity Society (NESFAS) hosted its monthly Mei-Ramew Farmers’ Market at its headquarters in Laitumkhrah, Shillong on Friday as part of the No One Shall Be Left Behind Initiative.
Students from Kiddies Corner School Shillong also took part in supporting local foods where fun games were organised for the children. To create awareness on sanitation, the students were also a part of the WASH Campaign and were made to wash their hands before they could proceed for treats.
As part of the Mid-Day Meal Supplementation Initiative, mini millet pancakes were given to the children.
Through this initiative, NESFAS aims to spread awareness among the urban youth and others regarding the importance of local food and the role it plays in achieving proper nutrition.
