Omallur Farm Fair: Portal to Timeless Agri Heritage

The New Indian Express Kochi

|

March 17, 2025

IN the Central Travancore region, where tradition unfolds a timeless agricultural heritage, the Omallur Vayal Vanibham, or farm fair, is a reminder of ancient life and culture.

- JAISON WILSON @Pathanamthitta

The month-long extravaganza, steeped in history and brimming with local charm, is more than just a trade fair; it's a living narrative of the district's enduring links, that extended from nearby areas such as Kollam, Alappuzha, and Kottayam to Tamil Nadu state.

"Vayal Vanibham is a nostalgic experience. The fair will take you to a period when there was only bullock carts for travel. The fair is believed to be between 500 and 600 years old. This was the main trade hub of the region, which extended up to the border villages of Tamil Nadu. There is much folklore associated with the fair," Omallur panchayat president Johnson Vilavinal said.
