I partner with Backstreet Academy to experience an aspect of local life in Luang Prabang: RICE FARMING!
During this incredible excursion, I travel to the Living Land Farm in the Luang Prabang area, where sticky rice is produced. Our host, Lee, takes us through the entire process, from selecting the seed, to plowing the fields, to harvesting and refining. This tiny grain that we take for granted means so much to so many people in Laos and all over the world. It was wonderful to see where my food comes from!
