- Puerto Rico imports approximately 85 percent of its food. How did we get here? In one word: colonization.

I am starting an egg farm to produce 100% cage free, pasture raised & organic eggs in the town of Aguada, PR. I also have a Bachelors degree in criminal investigation but my heart belongs to the land.
That's super cool. My husband's family is from Aguada and next time there I would love to come and get some fresh eggs! My Dad has his chickens and when I'm there my mom always goes to the yard to get my fresh eggs for breakfast. Nothing tastes better than that.
Congratulations !! I’m glad for you and Puerto Rico 🇵🇷. You are going to be successful.
Thanks! You are the people that the island needs!
I congratulate and commend you and all the other YOUNG Puerto Ricans taking on these small agricultural ventures, this is incredible and the movement keeps growing stronger and stronger every day. Puerto Rico is in the infant stages of what I would call an Ecological Agricultural Renaissance!
¡Que Viva La Agricultura Orgánica Puertorriqueña!
Yo voy a ti brother pa lante💯
I just love this! My mom is from Ponce. I was born and raised in the states. A few years ago, my husband and I purchased 6.5 acres for a vacation home in Caguas and now we’re making it our farm. Our goal is to be self sustainable. This island is incredible. You can grow so much here! It blows my mind that 85% of food is imported in such a fertile island. I love Puerto Rico! ❤️
So cool that you got all that land there. When I visited (and moving there soon!) I was so surprised of how fertile the land is there. I then understood why they called it "Puerto Rico", it is so rich!! Congratulations and all the best on your mission!
Is there a way for Puerto Ricans in the state to help and contribute
It shouldn’t blow your mind
Bill gates has bought up most of the farm land in the mainland US
Their goal is to turn us into a 3rd world country of monopolist elite and poor peasants
Ask your mom why she brought you to the states
This imported feature is not by voted public society choice let's be clear, it's forced on us. We will work on this change.
thats basically a dream of mine, buy a house up the mountains and grow food. Nice video Bianca, keep up the great work
Is that safe with strong seasonal tropical storms hitting your island so often?
I love PR and I’m an African American from MS. But living in Florida for years around a lot of Puerto Rican’s made me fall in love with a place I’ve never known. The people are some of the nicest you’ll ever want to meet, very passionate and in love with their homeland, very proud to be from PR. I’d love to visit and volunteer.
appreciate the love & hope you make it to the island sooner rather than later. :)
❤ Always welcome
I would love to invest and get a farm on the island and give back!!
I believe you but not the young generation that already live in us for many years
Sure ya would.
@@nitzamunoz9113 I actually just posted a comment about my dad having this opinion when I said I was considering opening a farm on the island one day. He legit called it a white savior attitude. I don’t understand it. Like how is it more okay and normal for me to move to another state I’ve never been to and open a farm, but the island that is in my blood and I’ve spent so many months on is off limits to me. I don’t understand the hostility to a generation that did not choose to be mainlanders. Could you explain?
As a Puerto Rican who lived from 1951 to 2014 in NY and then returned to Puerto Rico this video energizes me for the future of our nation Puerto Rico. My Jibaro family left Arecibo in 1951 to work in the factories and hotels of NYC.
Loved the video !!
You ain’t even Puerto Rican.
If I were living on the island, I’d definitely be growing. PR has fertile land, and if the people had their own little conucos, there would be more people comfortable with the idea of independence because we’d be less reliant on those imports. I’m praying more people do this and reconnect with the land.
On a personal level, I think that the reason people do not embrace independence is because the Pro Independence movement has tied independence to Socialism and Communism versus an Independent Puerto Rico with a hybrid system with a Capitalist economy that embraces entrepreneurship and funds a social safety net with some of the wealth created.
@@luislebron4785 personally to me, this reads like the propaganda has broken something in your brain. Reciting words that you do not understand the meaning of, but as long as you mash them all together you are going to make a delicious monfongo or acurpuria. FYI, That's not how communication works.
@@LeroyBrown Interesting, but not uncommon perspective. I grew up in the P.R. Pro Independence movement and am not against independence. I'm just not a Socialist/Communist. How close to it? My maternal grandfather was Puerto Rican Nationalist, Oscar Collazo. I grew up meeting and listening to most of the Puerto Rican pro independence leaders, such as Corretjer, Mari Bras, Ruben Berrios, Don Jacinto Rivera Perez, etc. The line you just used is one directly from their play book. Anyone that doesn't think like them has just bought into the propaganda. They never consider that they may have bought into the propaganda of the Socialist countries they support. Keep in mind that even countries like China and nations of the former USSR have had to embrace Capitalism.
@@luislebron4785 I think you again are confused or assuming something. The political or economic schools of thought you were familiarized with, have nothing to do with the change I'm invoking. Using reason and logic of these contemporary views to drive change is always blind to the future coming. I pray your mind is opened.
@@LeroyBrown What change are you invoking? You simply replied to a reply I made to WannaBtraceur about how people "were not comfortable with the idea of independence." I offered my perspective as to why, and nothing that you posted to me talks about change. I have not reviewed nor commented on any other comments you have made, so I am a little confused as to what you are talking about. BTW: That is not how communication works.
As a Jamaican living in the states I can say Puerto Rico is one beautiful island. Visited last year right before all the lockdowns and I’m ready to go back again an again.
Jamaica is also beautiful, GOD BLESS!
De visita súper para hacer futuro no way😮😂😂😂
¡¡¡Puertoriqueño you CAN do it, SÍ SE PUEDE!!! Saludos desde Quisqueya la Bella.
I remember my abuelita making me dinner from food grown in her garden. I miss her 😢
Que Viva Puerto Rico!
WEPA!!!!!!
Esto es lo que se necesita en PR, mas personas así.
hay que volver a la tierra !! en PR c da todo , como desia Tony croato la eternamente sembrable . PR 🇵🇷👍👍👍💙💙💙💙
Lamentablemente el terreno en Puerto rico es montañoso y difícil de usar un tractor lo que hace mas difícil competidor con otros países otra cosa nadie quiere trabajar en las fincas lo primero es que por 7.25 la hora nadie va a trabajar para otro en un trabajo explotador trabajando de guardia de seguridad no haces nada físico y te pagan 7.25 a 10.00 dolares hay muchas fincas que la gente tienen abandonadas que son propietarios ya que no aparece gente que trabaje en fincas lo otro es que los supermercados están saturados de café , plátano, yautia , llame, batata , lechuga importados de otros países al igual que el quineo maduro el quineo de la isla se pierde mientras el importado es consumido por los residentes todo esto gracias al gobierno incompetente quepermite esto y no ayuda al agricultor .
@@MrAlphacallsign muy sierto lo que dises !!! pero hay jente volviendo a la tierra y hay que ayudar... el produto casero es mas fresco muchos son organico y hasta 0 pestisidas , otra cosa son los idrofonicos ya c esta utilisando ese sistema y les va bien , si otros pueden PR tambien , papa siempre desia el que siembra come , el me enseño a amar la tierra , otra cosa el que siembra no tendra zapatos pero hay comida en su casita ... un % de la jente tienen que aver aprendido de estos ultimos años de desgrasia en la isla , yo tengo un gran amor por PR , y c que hay mucha jente buena y trabajadora dispuesto a aser el sacrifisio .. ck pa que tu veas la siembra no esta muerta en PR , anyway !! grasias por el comentario y que viva PR .....🇵🇷💙
Biden y Pelosi quieren darle la estadidad a la isla..what do you think about that? So they say that democratic party in USA will gain 2 democratic senator..is this true
@@nitzamunoz9113 es sierto y los republicanos no quieren eso pero aparte de eso , que tu piensas de la estadidad ? no te apures no te voy a juzgar!!! , solo tengo curiosidad .. y vives en PR ? yo vivo en virginia ... si me puedes responder te lo agradesco y sino no hay problema ..🇵🇷👍
Everyone can and should learn from this video-no matter what country you live in. Well done.
I grow quite a bit of my own food here in New England. I'm really happy to see the work going on in Puerto Rico! Food sovereignty is so important. Blessings to you all and much success!!
Been around those areas a few times, Europe grows a lot of their food, while in Germany, we lived with a German family for a few months, and they had a farm in their back yard, they grew just about everything, every Saturday morning the lady used to drop 6 litters of soda and freshly baked goods in front of our door! Great people, we shared holidays, German and American, a keg of German beer can go a long ways! Happy days!
DIOS TE BENDIGA. ADELANTE. DIOS NOS DIO LA TIERRA PARA QUE LA TRABAJARAMOS. ORGULLO 🇵🇷 PUERTO RICO 🇵🇷😍❤
Vamos PR empiecen a sembrar.Si se puede.
Por lo menos hay cinco grandes proyectos me pareció leer en una de las pags dedicadas a la agricultura, aparte están las personas como está gran chica. No es cosa de gente jibara ya, es cosa de gente inteligente. Comiendo orgánico siempre comes bien. Quien come así en estos días? Ahora puedes encargar una canasta a la semana de lo que se va produciendo en esos lugares y es una maravilla lo que comes! Nada que ver con lo que compras en un supermercado! Como huelen y saben las cosas!
Que esta sembrando usted ? Si se puede saber. Yo lo hago por entretenimiento.
This channel is needed. Some of us puerto ricans are trying to set up our island by becoming what we need to be for her and our ppl. True kings and queens are developing themselves to bring the wealth. Godbless you mamita
Thx for sharing!! We moved to PR last year and have begun farming:) 🇵🇷
Your UA-cam channel is coming along nicely 👍🏽 All the best with your efforts with your home, farming and family 🤸🏽♂️🤸🏽♂️🤸🏽♂️🤸🏽♂️🤸🏽♂️
I love it! That's the way it should be the grounds are for planting...yes keep doing positive things for Puerto Rico we need to flourish on agriculture, and all foods.❤ thank you 🙏
Having grown up in California and then attending an agricultural college institution in Alabama, I have considered both the environment and agriculture of utmost importance. This video taught me LOTS about Puerto Rico's agricultural history and you did an outstanding job! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 I intend on visiting Puerto Rico for the first time this June 2021 and look forward to trying Mofongo -- a dish that has an African influence, which is something I did not know. Thank you for sharing! 👋🏾
Are u still going to PR? Are you from Sacto? I'm so interested in doing something in PR with love for the Land. I'm in Hawaii now, but my Spirit open.
@@anthonysteanii3136 Yes, I'm still going. And yes, currently in Sacto. In Hawaii, I see? Never been there myself, but will have to go someday. 👍🏾
@@SacTowN2Tuskegee Puerto Ricans have an interesting relation with Hawaii. Look into the migration driven by those American Sugar Cane companies to the Hawaiian Archipelago.
Take care and hope you visit our beautiful Nation.
Stay safe and healthy.
@@hectormanuel8360 Thank you for this historical fact, I was not aware of the relation between Puerto Rico and Hawaii. And I DID make it to Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 back in June! 😊 ¡Amo Puerto Rico!
@@SacTowN2Tuskegee Tell me more about your visit. What municipalities did you go to?
I want to thank you for all the great work you’re doing for our beautiful mother land! I love and appreciate you 🤗
I love growing my own food. To be in my backyard and make it all edible. It's precious. No matter where you live, you can always plant something, even in an apartment complex. It will give you so much in return.
I agree, that's why this video is flawed
This video made me cry.I want to say Thank You for the video please make more. We need to start growing. Thank you again.♥️🦜
Tema importantísimo. Gracias por tratarlo de manera genial.
Muchas gracias!
@@BiancaGraulau Thank you for such a great detailed report! I truly pray the miracle happens and we save our beautiful little paradise, including our future generations!
Thank you for this info I lived in PR 23 years,my husband started or own garden.Fruits and vegetables.
I love this Vlog..blessings from Jamaica
Blessings from Caguas🇺🇸🇵🇷🤙😎🥃
"La Tierra me llama" - The land calls me! That's the Taino spiritual connection with nature! Great job on this video and huge respect to the farmers!
@jesus perez You sound so ignorant. There were Tainos from different countries and Islands Cuba, Dominican Republic and all over america not just Puerto Rico.
@jesus perez Okay y despues llegaron a otros lugares y su cultura se hizo nuestra tambien superalo 🤷♀️ Entendiste en español?
@jesus perez Tu eres historiador o tienes pruebas de que lo que tu dices es un hecho ? Te doy la razon para no seguir en en lo mismo sometimes you just have to let people be ignorant 🤷♀️
The tainos, my fellow indigenous brothers and sisters, love from the kalinagos of the nature island of Dominica also known to us as WAITUKUBULI
Amén!!!!!
More power to the youths in Puerto Rico...Agriculture the way to go
I love your videos
Our history is so unique.
I was born in NY, yet my parents; who are 100% PRicans; always talked to my siblings and myself about our culture. I moved to P.R. when I became 18 and I never left..I love my Island, my culture, my heritage and most of all, Our people.
Thk you for sharing all this info. ♥️🇵🇷♥️
My mom was born and raised in Caguas thank you for the history lesson . I love it keep them coming . 🇨🇺🇨🇺🇨🇺🇨🇺🇨🇺🇨🇺😊
Great video, just begun farming in PR, nothing like growing your food, can't wait for mango season :) 🇵🇷
WE NEED TO GET TARY LAND ASAP what a literal earth angel. if i had land i would reach out to her
😂😘 funny with the “intermission” Adorable horse. Excellent information.
I miss Puerto Rico so much. I was a so lucky to grow up there. I miss my Puerto Rican friends.
🦋🌻🇵🇷🏝🐸🌺Thank you for sharing all this information. Born in P.R. and raised in the Bronx and now working and living in Chicago. There are days where all i wish for is to be able to have a home and land to grow and have animals and live peacefully. No matter what or where i am soy Boricua and I'll always be a Jibarita.🦋🌻🇵🇷🏝🐸🌺God Bless my beautiful island.
I’m from Mexico 🇲🇽. I had no idea that Puerto Rico was so beautiful. I will get to visit one day. Saludos desde Japón 🇯🇵. You got a new follower 😃
Puerto Rico has a beautiful countryside of consisting of hills and mountains, rain forest, and with great beaches in most of the entire island's coastline. It's worth the trip.
We need this global interest no matter how small it appears, we will grow from this.
Been to Mexico, lived there for a while, beautiful land, beaches, tequila, food and women 😅🤣😂
Food equity.
Thank you for tackling this important topic here on the island.
So important for PR and the world as a whole.
What is equity and why it is good?
@@hoyola1
everyone having enough food to eat is good because then people wont starve.
at least in my view people not starving is a good thing. you might disagree.
@@sabin97 don't be silly. Of course people not starving is good but that was not the question. And I asked what is equity cause everybody talks about it but only a few knows what it really means. And by your answer I can assume you are not one of them. We already have good equity in form of welfare.
@@hoyola1 they’re virtue signaling dweebs, cherry picking grievances and blessings just like how they cherry-pick their words and pronunciations to appear more “authentic”.
a wonderful story of a place I dearly love
Dope and informative! I myself believe that Puerto Ricans should keep in touch with their roots and grow their own food. It's an amazing thing to see someone provide for themselves from the land!
Yo compro cada semana una canasta de productos orgánicos no gm y hay hasta hojas verdes, coles, habichuelas frescas, vegetales de varias clases, hierbas etc... Buenísimas!
God(☆)bless (☆)Puerto Rico 🇵🇷🇩🇴
The momentum is growing. More will follow. Less will acquiesce. Thank you for putting the spotlight on such an essential topic.
Thank you for this content! My father is Puerto Rican and I've really considered moving to Puerto Rico to help in any way I can to bring food sovereignty, and push to embrace and re-discover ways to thrive off of the land. I'm told that it's not safe for me to do that (as a mainlander).
However, I feel there are so many injustices happening in Puerto Rico and if I can help in anyway, I want to try. It's really refreshing to see someone that is not moving to or living in PR just to take advantage of a tax incentive. I have a Business and History Degree and I really appreciate what you are sharing. Thank you for giving back in the way you have.
Tary me enamoroooo!!! que energía más bella mujer. gracias existir y dar luz a la agriCULTURA
I love this 👏. My wife and I were just talking about growing our own fruits and vegetables.
Greetings from Dominican Republic 🇩🇴🇵🇷
Los felicito porque ustedes alcanzaron lo contrario, 85% de producción local! 💚

This video is soooooooo important for people ro watch wow. Thank you for educating
No, not really. My cousin has a successful small farming business and he grows his own food, in Aguada. So what.
Amazing video!! I'm so glad to learn this & hear more. Prayers to the people of Puerto Rico🕊🙏
Bianca I just wanted to add that I wish I could give you 100000 likes but I can't. I even have shared some of your videos with some friends trying to get you more subscribers. God bless you🙏
I was 8 years old when the family moved to Wisconsin (US) My mother used to grow her own crops and raised her own chickens 🐓. When she used to run of cooking gas, she would cook outside and set up the fired like the old times. I still remember where I can from, my beautiful Puerto Rico 🇵🇷. I know the island has so much to give. Primero Dios!!
Love this!!
Pineapples, guava, papaya, corn, avocados, dragón fruit, passion fruit, peanuts, lerenes are some of the ancestral foods.
Platanos, guineos, coco, Tamarindo, china, cereza...
They are still found in the farmers plaza del mercado. We use to have a thriving poultry farm, cow farms, tabaco, sugar, cotton and now they r all gone...people r home waiting for their food stamps. Our values have changed for the value of money and most of those jibaros are greedy and selfish...I am 65 but I'm relying in the youth that is studying and realizing that change is greatly needed.
Your work for PR is amazing. You are my one/singular trusted source of information.
Thank you for exposing the history that many of us can’t access from the states
its there to see in the open and just one vist to the island and you will also see a different story not told here -
Are you stupid? ....you know you're online right? You obviously have access to Google 🤣
So beautiful! Thank you!
Muy inspirador, ojalá que cada puertorriqueño se inspire con este video.
Baboso jaja
Such important information. Your work in journalism is much appreciated.
This is beautiful! Thank you for shining light on this and for opening the public’s eye
AMEN YES GROW ALL THE FOOD YOU CAN! GET BACK TO FARMING! STAY STRONG AND STAY AS ONE!! GOD BLESS 🙏🏼 SUCH A FRUITFUL LAND
Thank you! I'm a Puertorican from Brooklyn, NY. (Born and raised) My Parents were from Aguadilla, PR. (GOD rest there souls). I've traveled to PR for vacation about 4 times in my 53 years of life, Never with my parents. A regret that I bare for the rest of my life. I thank you because I truly enjoy your reporting on Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 and the personal stories of the people. I learn a lot from your reporting.
I send links to your videos to the youngsters in my family and friends, so that they too can see and learn the history of our people and what is life like in the present time.
You are doing a fantastic job, don't ever stop.
Fan for life, Manny Carrero.
My family too, are from Aguadilla, PR. Farming needs to happen again in order to be more independent and also, being proud of Puerto Rico. I would be interested in volunteering some of my time to see this come true.
Absolutely great comments!!
Remind the youngin's to put their lands in a *land-patent* lock it in
Great reporting, I loved it. Truly mesmerizing women, making a difference in the world and an impact on peoples lives.
¡¡¡🌺🦋🌈🌻🤩😍Gracias... Pa' lante😍🤩🌻🌈🦋🌺!!!.
Wow, this was very informative. My cousin forward me this link from New York. I was born and raised in California. My father is a Jibaro de Cidra. Mom from Camuy. My parents cooked old school Puerto Rican food, with root foods, bacalao, arrozo y bebichuelas, meaning old traditional food. When I visited Puerto Rico, I couldn't find native food in the restaurants. Mostly everything was fried food. I believe that Puerto Rico can support itself by each person growing food in their backyard. My Tio German grew many fruit trees in his back yard and used to make Puerto Rican homemade candy. Living in California I have adopted to this same philosophy. I have14 fruit trees surrounding my home--oranges, peaches, pomegranates, apricots, grapes, pineapple & strawberry guavas, lemon, and limes. I wish I can grow yucca, pana, taro, culantro, Aigis dulce, mango, but not in Northern California, it's too cold. I wish these ladies much success. They are on the right. I appreciate your commentary
U can grow yautia. I grow it in NY. And papas too
Gracias Bianca! You are a breath of fresh air for me because I live in Colorado and I don't hear much about Puerto Rico. She is my island of enchantment and I love her from afar🙏🙋🏼😍Puerto Rico
May Mother Nature bless your efforts with her bounty 🙏🏼
I was the only one of my siblings born in Puerto Rico. Guayama to be specific. I wish I could go back and buy some farming land to work. Maybe when I retire. Sending my love to this beautiful place ❤
This is exactly they way all humanity should live. Our land is a gift to us. Proud to see that they are people seeing the value. Go back to basics. Enough with process foods, with toxic chemicals ect.
absolutely LOVED this video. pretty much covered the food situation in Puerto Rico. You covered all the bases - King Sugar, the Jibaros, Operation Bootstrap and now the return to sustainable farming on the Island. Hopefully a grass roots movement can help sustain the movement and make Puerto Rico less dependent on imports for food. When the soil is so rich, it makes sense to "live off the land" un Mil Gracias for this video
The promotion of true grassroot movements throughout the island is vital to Puerto Rico´s survival as a nation. Hurricane Maria proved that point, since there were no real food reserves. Another point in favor of the movements is related to the possibility of disruption in shipping lanes due to unrest in the Caribbean. Specifically referring to Venezuela and Cuba governments causing tensions, threats and havoc during their inminent convulsion. Hope our friendly boricuas are successful in their quest for less dependence on foreign agricultural goods.
The Botanical Gardens are a beautiful place; Caguas is the birthplace of my Mother and I live here in Caguas since 2011 when I moved from the Bronx. So blessed to be here in the land of my ancestors.
You giving me Vanity Fair with the black seat and the white outfit Thank you for Educating us
Me Encanto ver este video y ver personas trabajando la tierra de puerto rico. Me encanta sembrar y un dia de estos regresare a la isla y podre sembrar lo mio y tambien ayudar a las personas que no pueden ayudarse. Amen!
Living off the land it’s the best thing to do 🙏🙏 love this video keep them coming ❤️🇵🇷❤️
PR is so beautiful and magical. I would love to move there and help rebuild for the native Puerto Ricans.
Thank you, brings back memories of stories my mom used to tell me about my grandfather's Farm she used to work the land.And my dad worked the sugar fields.
I love our roots and would love to see a great awakening on the island.
Dont know who you are, but i love what you do: professional and informative.....
Nice well done , that girl so inspiring 22 , very intelligent, I'm sure she will get her land , she so determined !
Thank you for the education about Puerto Rico and learning how to grow crops in the ground there and in the history of my home I've never been home yet my moms Puerto Rican they came to New York somewhere in the 50s or 60s and someday I hope to return to to Puerto Rico before I passed away thank you for your videos Daka
God bless you and your work...Im very happy to still find youtube channels llike yours that inform about our beautiful land...keep the good work!!!
Que Dios los bendiga a todos mis puertorriqueños🙏🏼🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷
Bianca, thank you so much for sharing this video.
I will love to be in Puerto Rico doing that
It's because of you, That makes proud to be an islander.
Glad to see another video. Always quality
Nice to watch a video like this one. Hope we will all go back to planting the food we shall eat. The organic way. God bless!
Thank you for the video, I love it! Keep educating us.
Glad to see another video. Beautiful drone shots & b-roll and of course great content. Keep up the good work !
Thank you so much for watching!
Happy Birthday !
I think it's great what been done back to basic of growing crops in Puerto Rico self-reliance 😎🙏👍
OMG this is beautiful!! Dios los bendiga!
Born in El Barrio and 78 years of age, I am so glad to hear the many things that have been intrinsic to my life. Keep the good work up. I still have pasteles once a week by the way
This is an amazing video!! Your reporting is top notch! I loved seeing the reclamation of food sovereignty! Makes me feel hope.
Love these videos 👍
My parents moved from PR to NJ in 1982 and I've lived most of my life in the US, but my heart is still there and I champion all Boricuas that fight for a better PR, thru agriculture or journalism
Cheers from Las Vegas
This is great. I think its worth noting that even with local farming, the Jones Act needs to end or get exempted for PR to prosper. It still affects the cost of importing the fuel, supplies and equipment needed to build and operate farms in PR.
Muchas felicidades por este documental!!!! Tan necesario para la sostenibilidad!!!!
Video precioso! Thank you Bianca 💚
I am so glad you left the horse in. Made me smile. :-)
Amiga aqui en Puerto Rico no quieren pagar el mínimo en la agricultura
Por eso es.que la juventud piensa en otras cosas
Hay varios proyectos maravillosos que venden directamente, a personas individualmente, a restaurantes y en mercados abiertos, es una idea que les está ayudando a crecer. Además de que producen también enseñan a hacerlo a estudiantes y también a gente común. Los productos están buenísimos y ofrecen muchas cosas! Me parece que vamos cambiando y que las cosas van mejorando. Pero definitivamente debemos apoyar ese esfuerzo tan delicioso y saludable.
ESA es la Pura realidad que estos "Dreamer" OVER LOOK... DREAMING IS FREE!!!
This makes me so happy it makes me cry💖💖💖💖

@John B What?
Growing your own food in a beautiful tropical place is a dream I want to be a reality one day.
Your videos are informative, eye catching and helpful for the present and future of the island, and beyond it.
Your never going to know the full positive impact made Bianca. Many minds are changed and better decisions made by virtue of your professionalism and shared knowledge. Don’t stop! Your island is already a winner and you- a hero. Congrats!!!
I grew up in cimarona where I learned all of this as a child from my father and his mother. I learned about more than just agricultural means of having sustainable food sources. Currently I’m living in the US going on 17 years now, and since the day I got here in 1999 I’ve been talking about this exact thing. Nobody ever seemed to care for it. So, seeing your videos fills my heart with hope for not just Puerto Rico to reclaim its natural luster, but for every region and all people too.
Thank you for this! Keep it up.
