Women club "Umed"

Women club "Umed", located in the village of Zarnisor , they are women who love the land. They are not changing their works since 3 years and engaged in the cultivation of early vegetables in greenhouses.

Early cucumbers and tomatoes, as well as the seedlings are bought directly from the house. The leader of the club Kurbongul believes that this is the most profitable business. Three years ago, when women built the first greenhouse, they dreamed that each member of the club house will have its own greenhouse. We hadn’t to wait long. For three years they were able to expand their activities and now all women have their own greenhouses.
