Greetings from Chinese, Barima-Waini! My name is Jacqueline Fernandes, and I am a proud farmer deeply rooted in the fertile landscapes of Guyana. Our land nourishes not only our bodies but also our spirit, as we cultivate a variety of crops that embody the rich flavors of our culture—from cassava to plantains, and of course, the beloved rice. Farming for me is more than a job; it is a way of life that connects me to my heritage and my community.
Living in close proximity to the majestic rivers of Arasaro and Kairimap, I draw inspiration from the natural beauty that surrounds me. The sounds of the river and the vibrant wildlife remind me of the importance of preserving our environment. As I work the land, I often think of my fellow Guyanese in the diaspora, who carry our traditions and stories with them, and I hope to keep that connection alive through my work. Whether it’s sharing a meal of pepperpot or gathering for a celebration, the ties that bind us are strong.
As we navigate the changes brought about by development and new opportunities, my focus remains on sustainable farming practices that honor our past while nurturing our future. I believe that every seed planted contributes to a larger narrative, one where Guyana's beauty and resilience continue to shine, both at home and abroad. Together, let’s celebrate our culture and work towards a brighter tomorrow for all Guyanese.
