Shakambari Purnima, which is also known as Shakambari Jayanti, is the last day of Shakambari Navratri.
Most Navratri begins on Shukla Pratipada except Shakambari Navratri which begins on Ashtami and ends on Purnima in Paush month. Hence Shakambari Navratri spans for total eight days. However in some years due to skipped Tithi and leaped Tithi Shakambari Navratri might span for seven and nine days respectively.
Shakambari Mata is incarnation of Devi Bhagwati. It is believed that Devi Bhagwati incarnated as Shakambari to mitigate famine and severe food crisis on the Earth. She is also known as Goddess of vegetables, fruits and green leaves and depicted with green surroundings of fruits and vegetables.
