We did not know about the struggles our mother went through till we started accompanying her to the market.

12-year-old Kesaia Maca highlighted this as she and her 10-year old brother Mosese Cevarua have been going with their mother to set up at the Suva Market before sunrise.

The siblings have been helping their parents sell their produce at the market during the school break.

Maca says they usually sell Cabbage, Tomatoes, Lettuce, Ginger, Cucumber and Dhania.
