Off and away

We're off on our first expedition tomorrow!
My group will be in Mae Ta for the first week living with host families and farming with them.  The village used to be a major supplier of baby corn to the world market, but then recently decided to completely switch to organic, sustainable farming, so we'll get a taste for their lives.  I am real excited.

Then we will go to UHDP (I think it stands for upland hilltribe development project) and learn a lot of agroforestry/ecology while hiking to different villages.  So much to look forward to and many adventures to come!
