Today marks the 3rd anniversary of the installation of the Eco-Tianguis. Please come show your support for them today. There will be lots of musical guests, dance, games, workshops, and special events. They will be at the plaza in front of the Escuela Primaria "Vicente Guerrero" across the street from the museum on Juan N. Álvarez street in downtown Zihuatanejo near the waterfront and La Boquita canal.

THREE YEARS!! WOW!! They've come a long way. Time sure flies when you're having fun!
:brilliant:

They DO have it in February. The Eco-Tianguis takes place every Saturday from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.

When we were there a couple of weeks ago, it was over by the school...just a temp location then, judging by your pix...

Rob's pics are old, they were only by the waterfront half of their first year, now behind the museum by the school every Saturday all year round and always fun.

Parece que tiene mezcal.

Has anyone sampled and how does it differ from the mezcal de Oaxaca?

Yes, I have tasted Ojo de Vibora mescal and it is delightful. I do not know how it compares though.

Shhhh! It's a secret! Do you want everyone to buy it and not leave any for us?

Hola
Always buy my mezcal from an old gentleman that walks around town with a sack over his shoulder containing his mezcal. We call him Senor Sanchez, don't know his real name. He sells it in old pop bottles for about 100 pesos a litre. In my opinion, really good stuff.

You're referring to Don Eladio Sánchez Farfán from Vallecitos de Zaragoza where our best local mezcal originates.

Ojo de Víbora? Awful nasty stuff! It's terrible. Don't buy it! Only locals and a few hardened foreigners can stomach it. I'll leave the Mezcal Oaxaqueño to the mezcal snobs and we'll make do with our local stuff so nobody's feelings get hurt. :snicker:

We've tried some of the other Mezcal & yucky!!! Even the liquor store, again yucky! The one we get is so smooth & have brought it back to Canada & everyone who's tried it like it better than Tequila!

¡Felicidades a todos!
I love Eco-Tianguis Sanka.
Every Saturday that I'm in Zih, you'll find me there.

Guess I'm one of those lucky tourists who can handle Ojo de Víbora, which is one of my favorites.
The mescal of Don Eladio (who somebody mentioned above as Señor Sanchez) is great, too.
The Ojo is a bit stronger, and Don Eladio's a bit smoother -and both are inexpensive.

For a minute there I thought it was back out by the beach! Eco-Tianguis Sanka is one of my favorite events in Zihua, thanks to Gabriela's artistic vision and penchant for organizing. We are there every week for three months but I will forever hope it can move back out to the beach area. It's unfortunate the restaurant owners complained. They didn't know a good thing when they had it.

The photos represent 3 years of the Eco-Tianguis Sanka.

As far as I'm aware it wasn't restaurant owners who complained that caused it to be moved. The restaurant owners got a lot of business from the Eco-Tianguis Sanka being near them on the beach. It attracted a lot of people who otherwise wouldn't have been there.

What an asset this is to the community!! I go every saturday I can. I love the vegan and raw food made by the Casita Vegana woman and the awesome healthy delights that Patti Lily makes. The organic produce area keep 'growing' but get there early as their items sometimes sells out. Almost every week there's a presentation and music and tons of hand made crafts to buy. Wow, Rob, the photos are great with all the colors! Thanks to all who make this event happen...Gabriel, Nick, Paco, Patti, Lupita.. etc etc etc.
