Amaranth Fair In Mexico City
View of amusement rides at the Amaranth Fair in Mexico City, Mexico, on February 3, 2026. Amaranth grows under rainfed conditions, mostly using the traditional ''chapin'' transplanting system, which involves small blocks of mud extracted from the canals of the chinampas (floating gardens) of Lake Xochimilco. Harvesting is done manually, and the grain or seed is used entirely for processing by local micro-industries. (Photo by Gerardo Vieyra/NurPhoto)
