What is a Zandolit? It is the Creole word for the Haitian Anole -- those little chameleons that run all over the place in Haiti and Florida and eat pesky bugs like mosquitoes. We at HAFF are very fond of our Zandolits. But at HAFF Zandolit has another meaning as well. It is the gift shop HAFF operates to give local vendors a chance to sell their wares to visitors. The shop is named for the chameleons who live there!
This is Barb with two of Zandolit's over 200 vendors. Some of the vendors sell locally produced items. Others purchase items in Cap Haitien or Port-au-Prince and bring them to the shop. It all means lots of items for visitors to choose from and is a source of income for many in the Bohoc/Pignon area.
