Bangkok farmers market celebrates women
It seems that farmers markets can always produce some of the best shopping experiences – whether it’s fresh organic products, quality crafts or scrumptious dishes, these small businesses always deliver. Take all that and add a good cause and the market becomes an even more wholesome ground to walk in.
Coming this Saturday 3rd April 2021 is the ‘Female Founders Farmer’s Market’ in honor of International Day Against Victim Blaming.

Female Founders Farmer’s Market
Ila – a social enterprise working towards gender equality and inclusivity in the workplace – is once again holding ‘Female Founders Farmer’s Market’ at Patom Organic Living on 3rd April 2021. While showcasing women-founded businesses is at the core of the market’s mission, so is raising awareness of gender-based violence.

In the event, over 40 female-owned vendors will be present with brands such as Kinko, La Mesa Coffee Co, and PAAK selling goodies from nibbles to drinks, clothes and sustainably created handicrafts.
