Fresh vegetables galore in Western Highlands province
Western Highlands province is the fresh vegetable capital of Papua New Guinea, as these pictures which I took on Tuesday this week show.
Taking a drive up to Tambul, we came across this wonderful vegetable market, near the Western Highlands-Enga border.
As we drove into Tambul - near Southern Highlands and on the foothills of the majestic Mount Giluwe (PNG's second highest mountain) - we came across this unbelievable brocolli garden.
Makes we wonder why we continue to import food from overseas.
Pictures from Mount Hagen market
Above are pictures of Mount Hagen market, which I took on Tuesday this week.
An excellent market, foodwise, although be warned that there are a lot of conmen, pickpockets and thieves around.
The kids hung around me like leeches.
I did like the excellent strawberries, and bought buckets of them for my children before travelling back to Port Moresby on Tuesday night.
