However, to give you a little insight into what the Organic Market is, here we explain it to you, in which they let us know what its twelfth edition would be.
History
The idea was born approximately 12 years ago with the Mazatlecan Verónica Rico and the American, Janet Blaser, initially, as a way to highlight the activity of the Historic Center, to encourage people to visit its public spaces, in this case the Plazuela Zaragoza. Thus it was born with at least 10 merchants.
It consists of a space in the heart of Plazuela Zaragoza, where around 28 stores are installed and offer products made in a natural and fresh way, products of the day to eat in a more ecological and healthy way, and at affordable prices precisely to promote small producers and of the region.
Little by little they have gained popularity, especially from the foreign community that comes to Mazatlán every year and spends a few months as residents, but always looking for more Mazatlecos to join and consume what people from El Quelite, Barras de Piaxtla, the Meseta Cacaxtla and even Nayarit has to offer.
