March 23, when we were out checking on the land as a possible donation to the church, we went to a member couple's home afterwards. They faithfully come in to church and often will sleep over Saturday so they can be there on time. They also work with the missionaries once a week or more often. They went through the temple last year.
Sahmnang also went along with us. The couple have all these pigs, plus a little garden, raise baby chicks, do a rice mill, and some fruit trees.
I think he is ready to eat!
Yep, definitely , he wants to eat!
These are pregnant sows. They just eat in these pens and it looks like stay in these pens too. IT was very clean and efficient.
The member sister who has the farm is on the right of me. They have been asking us to come out for a long time. It was just about 20 minutes further from the land, so off we went. They were happy to see us come and wanted us to come back one more time.
They also raise chickens and the have a place that has a rice harvester. People bring in their rice, they run it through the machine which takes the husks off the rice.
L to R: Sahmnang, the farm sister and her husband, Elders Blocker and Nelson, the less active sister, and Scott.
This is where they do the rice
Chicken coop.
They also incubate eggs and raise the chicks.
New mango trees.
Inside the mill, just waiting for the season to come. We sure enjoyed our trip out to their little farm. They are doing everything they can to improve their lives not only temporally but spiritually also!
