"In 2005-2006 I spent eight months in Peru documenting the work of a
British-run NGO, The Cusichaca Trust, which records current use of and
encourages the restoration of ancient farming methods in terraced
communities in the Andes. They also run development programs: putting in
running water, teaching nutrition, organizing community focus groups to
talk about what kind of work needs to be done to grow the local economy."
Be sure to watch the amazing slide show and take not of those incredible
eye hoes, some used in place of shovels, really short-handled.
