Ep. 7: Karen Farmers from Burma
Manage episode 329098644 series 3352019
This episode features four interviews with Karen farmers from the mountains of the Karen state of Burma (Myanmar) who spent roughly a decade in Thai refugee camps before resettling in South Philadelphia. They now grow their traditional crops at Novick Urban Farm.
The Karen way with food plants was key to their survival and joy while living in the center of a civil war; then again while hiding in the jungle and escaping to Thailand, biding time in the tight quarters of refugee camps; and today, farming and foraging here in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Their heirloom vegetables and traditional foods have become a lifeline, a heartstring, a refuge, and a delicious portal home.
SEED STORIES TOLD IN THIS EPISODE:
- White Flowering Mustard (Rat-Tail Radish)
- Lemon-Drop Spilanthes
- Green Pumpkin Eggplant (Ka)
- White Garden Egg (Eggplant)
- Chin Baung (Burmese Roselle Leaf)
