Joe Louis learns how to grow rice
See what other blogs are saying about Living Lands Farm in Luang Prabang:
“My bare feet squelched uncomfortably in the mud beneath me, and the milky grey water rose up to lap at my knees. With one hand on the plow, and another holding the reins, I tried to convince myself that I really was in control of the beast before me. My efforts aside, Susan the water buffalo seemed to already know the way by heart, and started leading us in a long circle around the field. Trusting in her expertise, I was thankfully left to focus my attention on not falling face-first into the mud.”

“A few years ago, Laut Lee also started teaching travelers how rice is grown, harvested, and cooked. On a warm, sunny morning, he explained that everything on the farm is done sustainably, organically, and by hand, the way it had been done for generations. We’d learn 14 steps in all and were encouraged to participate in the fields throughout the whole process.”
