Makers of organic, healthy products display their ware
The Hindu
They have a firm belief that market for organic products is growing at a fast pace
A group of like-minded sellers, promoting healthy and sustainable living practices and products in and around Madurai, came together on Sunday morning under the banner, ‘Yaadhum Market,’ to showcase their signature products and interact with one another on the premises of M. S. Chellamuthu Trust in Shenoy Nagar. R. M. J. Ramajeyam, who leads the ‘Yaadhum Market’ initiative, said that the platform was created in February by people who believed in leading a healthy life by opting for healthy food and a sustainable lifestyle. “It is a non-commercial space for people with similar interests to get to know each other. A number of experienced makers of organic and sustainable products are available for interaction with the younger lot. One can understand the market for such products and also the recent innovations in the field,” he said.![](/newspic/picid-1269750-20250217064624.jpg)
When fed into Latin, pusilla comes out denoting “very small”. The Baillon’s crake can be missed in the field, when it is at a distance, as the magnification of the human eye is woefully short of what it takes to pick up this tiny creature. The other factor is the Baillon’s crake’s predisposition to present less of itself: it moves about furtively and slides into the reeds at the slightest suspicion of being noticed. But if you are keen on observing the Baillon’s crake or the ruddy breasted crake in the field, in Chennai, this would be the best time to put in efforts towards that end. These birds live amidst reeds, the bulrushes, which are likely to lose their density now as they would shrivel and go brown, leaving wide gaps, thereby reducing the cover for these tiddly birds to stay inscrutable.
