Life as a (Pseudo) Small-Scale Farmer | Alanna in Ghana
https://alannawithoutborders.wordpress.com/2012/07/14/life-as-a-pseudo-small-scale-farmer
The thoughts, sights, and sounds of my summer as an EWB Junior Fellow. Life as a (Pseudo) Small-Scale Farmer.

This slideshow requires JavaScript. Will they really just sit down and put their hands in the air like the nucleus farmer says? It was filed under Ghana.
