Collecting figs, Syria

27 July 2019, Hama Syria - Afaf, her husband and their five children, work together collecting figs, processing & promoting their products as one family. Although that the conflict in Syria has limited their access to broader markets, the family kept going-on with their small-enterprise by reaching surrounding markets. Every seasons, Afaf Jafar wakes up in the early morning to collect figs and start the fruit drying process. this small-scale dried fruit business is Afaf's only source of income for her family.
