See how strong farmers are? This is the daily trek Manong Macario needs to make in order to get to his farm and back to his house. Sometimes, farmers would need to carry harvests going up this mountain. If this isn’t dedication, we don’t know what it is. ⠀ ⠀ . ⠀ ⠀ Trivia: for those who don’t know, the word Ilocano word “manong” literally means “older brother”. In the Philippines, however, “manong” has become a word used as a form of respect for another male, regardless of their age.⠀ ⠀ . ⠀ ⠀ #globalseedsavers #benguetseedsavers #agriculture #farming #farmers #foodheritage https://www.instagram.com/p/CSsv9-xBHjg/?utm_medium=tumblr
