Hello! I’m Olga Benjamin, a proud farmer from the heart of Manawarin, located in the beautiful Barima-Waini region of Guyana. My roots run deep in this vibrant land, surrounded by the lush greenery and the serene rivers that define our culture. Every day, I work the soil, growing crops that are not just food but a part of our identity—from cassava to plantains, each harvest tells a story of resilience and connection to our ancestors.
As someone who appreciates the rich culinary heritage of Guyana, I love sharing traditional dishes with my family and friends. Whether it’s a plate of pepperpot during the holidays or a sweet ginip to cool off on a warm day, food is a celebration of our culture. I often reminisce about gathering with loved ones, enjoying meals that bring out the flavors of our diverse backgrounds, from Amerindian to African and Indian influences. I believe that sharing these experiences helps to strengthen our bonds, both here in Guyana and within the diaspora.
Though I am rooted in my local community, I cherish the connections we maintain with Guyanese around the world. It’s inspiring to see how we support each other, especially when it comes to initiatives that uplift our homeland. As we navigate challenges like regional travel and access to markets, I remain hopeful for a brighter future for all of us. Together, we can nurture our heritage and promote the beauty of Guyana, ensuring that our stories and flavors reach far and wide.
