Meet Edna Edwards, a dedicated farmer proudly rooted in the lush landscapes of Mission, Barima-Waini. Growing up surrounded by the vibrant flora and fauna of Guyana, Edna has developed a deep appreciation for the land. Her farm is a reflection of her heritage, where she cultivates a variety of local crops, including cassava and plantains, often inspired by traditional recipes that have been passed down through generations. She believes that food is not just sustenance; it's a connection to her culture, and her homemade vegan patties are a testament to this, bringing a taste of home to everyone who tries them.
Edna is also an active member of her community, frequently sharing stories of the beautiful Upper Pom River Bat Creek and Cocorite Landing with both locals and the diaspora. Her fondness for these places resonates with many who have left Guyana but still carry a piece of it in their hearts. She often reminisces about the lively gatherings held at the Grant Golden Star and the strong sense of unity that binds her community together—something that is sometimes overshadowed by the prevailing stereotypes about her homeland.
As a farmer, Edna understands the importance of sustainability and strives to maintain a balanced ecosystem on her land. She sees her work not just as a profession but as a way to honor her ancestors and give back to the land that has given her so much. Through her efforts, Edna aims to inspire others to appreciate the rich culture and beauty of Guyana, reminding everyone that while they may be far from home, the heart of Guyana beats on.
