Harvest and Vayots Dzor Traditional Cuisine Festival in Hermon Village
?Harvest and Vayots Dzor Traditional Cuisine? festival and opening
ceremony of the first bed &breakfast facility in rural area of Vayots Dzor
was held on October 4th in Hermon village of Vayots Dzor Marz.
The event was organized by ?Work and Motherland? NGO - the Oxfam?s partner
in Vayots Dzor within the framework of Oxfam?s ?Sustainable Livelihoods?
Programme.
The ?Harvest and Vayots Dzor Traditional Cuisine? festival was celebrated
in the garden adjacent to Hermon?s resident Sahak Hovhannisyan?s house.
Within the framework of Oxfam?s ?Sustainable Livelihoods? Programme and
with the financial support from the ?New Horizon? Fund, Sahak Hovhannisyan
was able to renovate his house and turn it into a hospitality facility
thus contributing to the development of agro tourism in the rural
communities of Vayots Dzor.
More than 30 representatives of 5 women?s cooperatives operating in the
villages of Yeghegis, Hermon, Gomk, Zedea and Azatek targeted by the
programme participated at the event and exhibited products and goods grown
in their villages, as well as presented opportunities of agro tourism
development in their villages. Each village presented a dish typical to
their local cuisine. The guests enjoyed traditional lavash baking
ceremony. Children?s dance ensembles performed at the event.
Oxfam?s mission is to reduce poverty and build a future free from the
injustice of poverty. Present in Armenia since 1994 Oxfam implements
various humanitarian and development programmes in around 165 distant
rural communities by closely collaborating with the Government, more than
10 local non-governmental organizations, local self-governance bodies and
regional authorities.
