Harvest! – Friday Flims #10

Dery hired a group of women to help harvest maize this year. Here they are in action. Unbelievable how well they can balance those bowls of maize! Daily wage for women: 2GhC or about $1.50 plus lunch.

    Hi Ben!! Nice short video. Did you get to harvest as well or were you too busy holding the camera ;P

    It’s really great to be alongside you in those moments. Thanks for sharing!

    Sweet! :)

    I hope the new JFs get to see some harvesting first hand.

    I remember most people planting seeds at the end of the summer when we were close to leaving. I forget, is early May harvest season for most crops?

    That was really cool to see thank you! I’m also anxiously awaiting the next installment of your team’s strategy and the Impact Model and shift in thought.
