It's not the first time...There was growing plenty of grapes in Jaffna even in the civil war period

My parents used to talk about Jaffna grapes. How great they were. This will save money for SL. Why should we eat foreign grapes and send money to the developed countries. SL must start producing wine and export it to neighboring countries.

This is a resettled sinhala family in Jaffna, from the south. The soil seems very fertile after post war.

Last they have a smile in their face. Something to happy, after 30 years of war.
