It’s mango season in Haiti, but much of the fruit is not getting picked. In Haiti, most poor mango producers only have access to their local market, meaning when harvest time comes, the markets are flooded and prices are low. With the help of CRS, mango farmers are able to not only increase their production but expand to international markets.
