FAST MARKET

The high rate of unemployment and the long isolation of the villagers made it necessary to find alternative ways that can create almost an immediate economical growth in the village.

We have decided to develop an economical structure in which agriculture, tourism, aesthetics and local hospitality culture are combined and are forming a strong base for economical independency and sustainability in village.

The market is located in the forest, and consists of 40 plots -one per each family. The different families can sell home made (locally produced) products such as olive oil, honey, medical herbs, cheeses etc.

The market is attached to a parking lot that can be transformed into an expanded market square on special occasions (holidays and/or other festivities etc).

The market kick-off will take place during our upcoming event between 1st September and 7th September 2008. It will start as an art project and will be developed into a long-term project, in collaboration with Debra Solomon.
