EVERY SUNDAY · 07:00–12:00

Forty growers. One car park. Seven in the morning.

Everything sold at Sunday Shet was grown, baked, pressed or reared within 120 km of this car park, by the person standing behind the table. No resellers, no mandi stock, no exceptions — we check, and we have asked people to leave.

Doors, and we mean it

Three of the forty

Bhosale Farm, Mulshi

Sixteen varieties of gourd and the only person here growing red amaranth without shade netting. Table 4, every week since 2019.

Anna Bakes, Kothrud

A domestic oven, forty loaves, sold out by 09:15 for eleven straight weeks. Sourdough and a pao that ruins other pao.

Kadam Dairy, Velhe

Raw A2 milk in glass, paneer made Saturday night, and ghee that arrives warm. Bring back the bottles, they charge a deposit.

“I came for tomatoes and left having argued with a man about soil for twenty minutes. That is the difference between a market and a supermarket aisle.”

Practical things

Where is it?+

The Symbiosis car park off Senapati Bapat Road, entrance from Gate 2. Parking is free until 10:00 and impossible after 10:30, which is a good reason to come early.

Do I need to bring bags?+

Yes. We stopped providing them in 2022 and it saved roughly 1,400 plastic bags a month. A few cloth bags are for sale at the entrance at cost.

Can I pay by UPI?+

Almost every stall, yes. Two of the older growers take cash only and there is an ATM at the gate. Nobody takes cards.

What happens if it rains?+

We run anyway — the car park is half-covered and the growers have driven in from Mulshi at 05:00 regardless. Only a red alert closes us.

Can I sell here?+

Applications open twice a year. You must grow or make it yourself, be within 120 km, and be prepared for us to visit. About one in five applications gets a table.
