The beauty of the village is reflected in the simple yet contented lives of its residents, who live in small huts or homes made from clay or mud. Each dwelling typically has a spacious open area with trees in the front and a vegetable garden at the back, all surrounded by bamboo.

Houses in Indian villages are eco-friendly in nature, constructed primarily from bamboo with thatched roofs. The walls and floors of these village houses are coated with a mixture of dirt, grass, and cow dung, which requires regular maintenance, especially before and after rainfall.

The majority of the villagers in Zarye are engaged in farming, while others pursue occupations such as pottery, carpentry, and blacksmithing. Bullocks play a crucial role in agricultural activities, assisting in tasks like plowing fields and carting goods. Women contribute by planting rice paddies, while men are responsible for tasks like tilling new soil.

History

From the time of the Peshva up to 1 August 1879, when Vengurle was made a sub-division, Lanja was the headquarters of a petty division of Rajapur. As per the records since 1st January 1957 it says that Ancestry called "Chandurkar" चांदूरकर family used to run this village and they were whole and sole owner of this village called Zarye. As the time passed away the family grew and they changed their surnames to "More". After this change by the Ancestor's "Moree" मोरे clans were the whole and sole owner of the entire village. Since the situation earlier was not that great in terms of Economic there were Barter system people use to trade in those days."Moree" मोरे clans have their own devotional place called "Adhishti Mamta Mandir" आदिष्टी देवी in village which were build by their Ancestor's who use to offer their prayers to this Goddess. It is said that this goddess is so temple is a “jagrut devasthan” (lit. “alive temple”), meaning that the god here is very powerful. Any prayer's offered here are been fulfilled.In order to survive in those days "Moree" मोरे started lending land and allowing the family to reside and be the part of the village. Also to improve the village and build the house "Moree" मोरे hired Carpenter "सुतार" and offered him the piece of land where he can reside and whenever required can help the village in manufacturing carpentry tools for people over there in order to repair or build the house. This how the village started building and few people were allotted or sold the land to be part of the village. This is how the families like Berde's बेर्डे, Sawant's सावंत, Jadhav's जाधव, Chavan's चव्हाण, Rao's राव, Kadam's कदम, Panchal's पांचाळ Dhangarwadi धनगरवाडी etc...are now been the part of the village.

Zarye Manufacturers and Agricultural Commodities

Agricultural Commodities (First) (Paddy), Manufacturers Commodities (First) (Bamboo cane products), Agricultural Commodities (Second) (Cashew), Agricultural Commodities (Third) (Ragi),

People do farming over here and most in the manufacturing is Rice. People also do farming of Wheat, Jawari, Mango, Cashew, Jackfruit.

Alphonso (mango) is the most famous fruit which this village is blessed with.The 'Alphonso' mango is a named mango cultivar that originated in India.Favored for its sweetness, richness and flavor, the Alphonso has been called the king of mangoes.

Rice can be cultivated by different methods based on the type of region.The traditional methods are still in use for harvesting rice. The fields are initially ploughed and then fertiliser is applied which typically consists of cow dung and then the field is smoothed. The seeds are transplanted by hand and then through proper irrigation, the seeds are cultivated. Rice grows on a variety of soils like silts, loams and gravels. It can also tolerate alkaline as well as acid soils. However, clayey loam is well suited to the raising of this crop. Actually the clayey soil can be easily converted into mud in which rice seedlings can be transplanted easily. Proper care has to be taken as this crop thrives if the soil remains wet and is under water during its growing years. Rice fields should be level and should have low mud walls for retaining water. In the plain areas, excess rainwater is allowed to inundate the rice fields and flow slowly. Rice raised in the well watered lowland areas is known as lowland or wet rice. In the hilly areas, slopes are cut into terraces for the cultivation of rice. Thus, the rice grown in the hilly areas is known as dry or upland rice. The yield of upland rice per hectare is comparatively less than that of the wet rice.

The Cashew tree (Anacardium occidentale) is a tropical evergreen tree that produces the cashew seed and the cashew apple.The cashew tree is cultivated in the tropics between 25°N and 25°S, and is supremely adapted to hot lowland areas with a pronounced dry season, where the mango and tamarind trees also thrive.[24] The traditional cashew tree is tall (up to 14 m) and takes three years from planting before it starts production, and eight years before economic harvests can begin. More recent breeds, such as the dwarf cashew trees, are up to 6 m tall, and start producing after the first year, with economic yields after three years. The cashew nut yields for the traditional tree are about 0.25 metric tons per hectare, in contrast to over a ton per hectare for the dwarf variety. Grafting and other modern tree management technologies are used to further improve and sustain cashew nut yields in commercial orchards.

Wheat Cultivation and repeated harvesting and sowing of the grains of wild grasses led to the creation of domestic strains, as mutant forms ('sports') of wheat were preferentially chosen by farmers. In domesticated wheat, grains are larger, and the seeds (inside the spike lets) remain attached to the ear by a toughened rachis during harvesting.Technological advances in soil preparation and seed placement at planting time, use of crop rotation and fertilizers to improve plant growth, and advances in harvesting methods have all combined to promote wheat as a viable crop. When the use of seed drills replaced broadcasting sowing of seed, another great increase in productivity occurred. Yields of pure wheat per unit area increased as methods of crop rotation were applied to long cultivated land, and the use of fertilizers became widespread. Improved agricultural husbandry has more recently included threshing machines, reaper-binder machines (the 'combine harvester'), tractor-drawn cultivators and planters, and better varieties.
