The rains have been very slow to come this year. Normally they arrive in May but it was the second week of June before our farmers were able to begin work this year.
One of my good friends was planting 200 yams inn his farm a couple of miles out of town. Trey, Aaron Brantley (a Georgia Baptist Convention Collegiate Ministries volunteer) and I joined Kolbugri in his farm to build 150 yam mounds and plant the tubers.
It is really, really hard work! Below are some photos and a video clip of Trey helping out.
