Quite a few hawkers still go around in their donkey-driven carts to sell their produce to the women who congregate to pick and choose every morning. This is a typical scene that repeats itself often in neighboring Maltese towns and villages as the colorful carts display all kinds of vegetables, some of which are imported but most of them are home-grown like the ones you see in this photo. You can recognize apples, pears, strawberries, grapes, plums, kiwi, oranges, loquat and in the basket on the ground broad beans which are popular at this time of the year. Food stores also sell these kinds of veggies, but most people prefer the fresh produce that beats any other imported product.
