Engineer Joey Baclayon, head of the City Agriculture Office, said that the farmers had been clamoring to sell again at the Tabo since the city was placed under Alert Level 1. The farmers, who are part of the Tugbong Tabo Vendors Association, will be given a chance to sell alternately each week. The profit will be solely theirs and they can sell their goods at a competitive and even cheaper than Carbon price.
All kinds of local farm products are sold at the Tabo including sayote , talong , kalabasa , sibuyas , kamunggay , patatas , coconut, and even mangoes.
