Course
This course is a collaboration between Honey in the HeArt( Panya Forest) and our P’gakeryaw youth leaders group of Hin Lad Nai village, Wiang Pa Pao, Chiang Rai, Thailand. This course is bilingual – in English and Thai.
We are learning about Rotational Farming and indigenous seed saving and their rituals and beliefs.
We are learning about seasonal food. We are provided for a living from the Earth.
“April ends and May begins. The rains come down, causing mustard seeds to sprout new green leaves all over the fields.”
“Rotating farming allows us to eat rice and vegetables from fields. Setting traps allows us to eat birds and mice from the forest along the field”
We will learn how to make “Ta Po Pheo” or “Khao Beh” which is known by the city people.
We will trek to the rotational farm, talk about forest management, the rituals of rotational farming, then we will cook a “Gaeng Yen” or unheated curry. After that we will collect mustard greens to dry mustard greens for the dry season. Then we will make dried mustard greens chili paste, Muv saf toj baj k’e (Muv Sa To Ma Keo Eo), along with boiled pods with free-range chicken, Hpau di de hsau (Por Dee De So) once we are back home.
Ending with learning how to make Khao Puk or Khao Pung Nga (Mei toj hpiv ) along with tasting wild honey and sipping traditional tea before entering the hand-tying ceremony to calling back the spirits before returning home
