Outdoor food preparation for an annadhan meal. Five women sit on a blue tarpaulin and mats on bare ground, wearing green hairnets. They peel and chop vegetables into steel bowls and buckets, with a large pile of ripe tomatoes behind them and green beans in front. Their saris are purple, teal, blue and orange-brown. Stacked blue, red and purple plastic crates and white sacks surround the work area, and a plastic chair and table are visible at the top right.

Several women in headscarves and hairnets sit on tarpaulins sorting and cutting green leafy herbs, with a large heap of red tomatoes behind them and a metal bowl of greens in front.
