From the fields come rice, millet, cassava, manioc, farina, peanuts, and sweet potatoes. Smaller gardens produce a few vegetables such as onions, eggplant, and cucumbers, plus perhaps eggs and chicken. Milk and beef can be found on occasion, as well as goat and wild boar. Manios leaves make a tasty sauce. And there's lots of fish from the river.
Seasonal fruit is abundant.
Last month was guava season. Now it's bananas, papayas, and oranges. In May we'll get mangoes. There are no employees. Everyone does what they can and they get by.
