We have been quite busy since our last posting! From Koh Pangan we took a full day journey south to Krabi, Thailand, where we had arranged to volunteer our time on a sustainable, organic farm in exchange for accommodation and food. Our host, Tee, picked us up at the bus station and took us to the beautiful Numthang property. The next two weeks would be spent digging vegetable beds, engineering sink gutter irrigation systems, planting, seeding, and mixing palm waste with coconut waste, soil, and palm shit (a technical farming term). The family consists of Tee, Toon, and their two children Numthang and Thangum. We love them so much and get along wonderfully, so we convinced them to let us return after going on a visa run to Cambodia! I am currently sitting at the kitchen table of the farm writing this, and we will be here for at least another two weeks

Toon feeds us DELICIOUS Thai food for lunch and dinner on our work days, and we are doing our best to pick up a few tricks of the trade. The insight we have gotten into the world of permaculture and responsible, self-sustaining farming has been invaluable. I realize now what a task it is to create something like this for yourself, but also how rewarding it can be. The farm is only about three years old, and the first two years were spent building the adobe houses on the property (one for the family, one for the volunteers, and one tool shed which we are currently residing in). In the month since we first came here the property has transformed tremendously. We made more than half-a-dozen vegetable beds ourselves which will soon be producing beans, eggplants, chilis, and numerous leafy greens. We have planted banana, coconut, and papaya trees, and covered unused ground with peanut plants. The last three days have been spent WEEDING in a serious way – a task that has been forgotten for the past six months here Every day brings a new task and new experience. Breakfast (a few mangoes, a coconut, and maybe some bananas) begins at 9am and work starts shortly after. We break for lunch and a rest afterwards, before picking it back up around 3pm until everyone is too tired to go on. It is demanding but rewarding, and certainly a fair trade for what we are provided with. There is a volunteer who has been here since January, becoming an extended part of the family! We have seen others come and go (one guy didn’t even last 24 hours…) and we’ve worked with great people, as well as at least one who tested our patience thoroughly. I will always think fondly of this farm and look forward to returning to the family in the near future.
