There is a place in Sudan where it is almost possible to forget that a devastating civil war is going on.
Wrapped in bright colours and wearing plastic sandals, women in the country's Jebel Marra mountains set off each morning on donkeys, children in tow, to tend the fields.
In a Mediterranean-like climate and using the fertile soil, they grow peanuts, oranges, apples and strawberries - rare crops for a country now facing one of the world's worst hunger crises. Before the conflict, Jebel Marra's organic oranges were particularly prized across the country for their juiciness.
The mountainous area in this part of the western Darfur region is dotted with green peaks, especially now as it is the rainy season.
The rest of Sudan teeters on the edge of disaster.
Across the country, as a result of the two-and-a-half years of fighting that has crippled agriculture, almost 25 million people - half the population - are facing severe food shortages, including more than 600,000 who are experiencing famine, according to the UN.
But in the lush highlands of Jebel Marra, the problem is not growing food – it is getting the produce out.
We almost sell them for free and sometimes get rid of them on the way [to market], because they get rotten, says Hafiz Ali, an orange vendor in Golo town, which is in the midst of the mountains in Central Darfur state.
The insecurity and the poor state of the roads make transportation almost impossible.
Jebel Marra is the last remaining territory controlled by the Sudan Liberation Army - Abdulwahid (SLA-AW). This armed group has remained neutral in the current war. It has never signed a peace deal with the authorities in Khartoum going back to 2003 and the conflict over Darfur at that time.
Now, surrounded by war on all sides, the region is increasingly isolated.
To the west and north, the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) and allied Arab militias have blocked major roads. To the south, RSF positions are bombed almost every week by the Sudanese army - these attacks are also claiming civilian lives.
Because of the difficulty of moving the produce any further, there is an oversupply in the market and as a result prices here have fallen.
In Central Darfur, a recent truce between leaders from the Fur ethnic group - dominant here - and Arab nomads has allowed limited trade in some areas, but travel is still dangerous.
This is the Jebel Marra region, a strange world surrounded by war. A world of green mountains and waterfalls. A world of bright, juicy fruit. A world of frightened evacuees.
One fruit trader said he had lost hope in both warring parties.
We're not part of the war - we just want to sell our oranges.
