It is harvest time at Legacy school in Chiang Mai. The rice is ripe and ready. Professor Ong-Art, who runs an organic farm near our rice fields told us we need to harvest NOW because our rice is so heavy it will begin to break the stalks!
So, classes are cancelled and all the teachers and students have headed for the fields to bring in the harvest before the King’s Birthday holiday this Thursday, December 5.
