Life for the family is not easy. They make their living growing rice on a 2.5 acre farm.
Here, Taeng and ChounSariminspect their yearly store of rice. It must last them until the next year’s harvest. If they run out, they will need to borrow money at high interest rates to meet their family’s needs.
They also borrow money to pay for things like medicine when one of the family members get sick.
World Renew and a local partner, Communities for Transformation, are working with the Yang Taeng family to diversify their crops, try new farming techniques, and improve their lives.
The family recently built this frog pen. Raising and selling frogs has given the family an new source of income.
ChounSarim also attends the World Renew supported Farmer Field School (FFS). She has learned to maximize every inch of her farm to grow vegetables for her family. Here she grows onions in a hollowed out log she has filled with dirt.
During her monthly classes in the Farmer Field School, Choun Sarim works alongside others to try out new techniques.
Through programs like these, the Yang Taeng family’s life is improving. They even built this new outdoor kitchen.
The future looks brighter for 12-year-old Sarorn and her siblings
