The Weekly Window: Visiting a Potato Market in Peru

Our program director, Suzanne Schultz, took this photo on her May trip to Huancayo, a city in the highlands of Peru where Five Talents hopes to set up another branch office in order to serve the poor in the surrounding countryside.

According to a 2007 article in the Washington Post, Peru has more than 3,000 types of potatoes. By the looks of this photo, you can find a good many of them here at this market in Huancayo.
