Mysuru's Mango Mela Begins: Farmers and Consumers Unite
Imagine a big party for mangoes!
It's called the Mango Mela, and it's happening in Mysuru for three days.
Farmers from different places come to sell their yummy mangoes directly to you.
They have lots of types, like the famous Kesar mango.
The Mela is to help farmers sell their fruits easily and to make sure you get mangoes that are naturally ripe and good for you, without using chemicals.
