Keith (the co-director of this program, with Kacy) and his wife Chicu have rented an old farm house nearby with 10 acres of terraced hillside. They'll move in after the program and start cultivating the land. Yesterday Chicu and I walked over there to plant beans.
Their house is the white one in the middle of the photo 2/3 of the way up the hill.
Here's the stream at the bottom of their hill- there's a dusty patch of flat ground just beyond where the village boys play cricket in the afternoons.
Here's their neighbor's land- cultivated with cabbage for the winter. The haystack on the left is a common way of storing fodder for the animals for the winter. They cut grass and stack it around a central vertical pole.
