I know that in the world there are bazaars and sales fairs; and perhaps the atmosphere may be similar. However, I highly doubt that outside of Cuba there are experiences similar to this one. The agricultural fairs on Saturdays on Céspedes Avenue in Santiago de Cuba have become a unique phenomenon. It is the day when trucks loaded with vegetables and root vegetables arrive from other municipalities to sell their products. The peasant or the agricultural cooperative benefits because they sell directly without intermediaries their products at a better price, and the people who buy benefit from cheaper prices. So for the population, it is a good opportunity to buy more with the same amount of money or buy the same and save a little.
