Farmers Forge Stronger Links with Tobago’s Wholesale Market in Push for Food Security

August 27, 2025 – Tobago’s agricultural community came together today at the Farmers’ Wholesale Market — an initiative aimed at strengthening ties between local producers and vendors while promoting food security across the island.

The event served as a platform for farmers to display and sell their fresh, locally grown produce directly to buyers. More than just a market, the gathering fostered a spirit of collaboration and trust between suppliers and consumers.

Organisers highlighted the importance of the initiative in promoting sustainability, building relationships, and supporting Tobago’s food economy. Vendors welcomed the chance to forge direct links with farmers, while shoppers praised the access to affordable, farm-fresh goods.

The market underscored a growing commitment to the “farm-to-table” model and the vital role local agriculture plays in the island’s development.
