I've grown cocoa since 1990, with a bit of dairy on the side. I'm up before the sun most days.
I teach local school groups about where food comes from. I run most mornings.
I'm proud of everyone I got to work with.
What gifts mean to Zenaida: A gift would go toward seed and repairs after a bad season.
