Greetings from Mission, Barima-Waini! My name is Loretta Samuels, and I am a proud farmer deeply rooted in the vibrant culture of Guyana. Living by the Pomeroon River, I’m inspired daily by the lush landscapes and the rich biodiversity of our region. From cultivating cassava and plantains to sharing the fruits of my labor with my community, farming is not just my occupation; it’s a central part of my identity and a way to sustain our traditions.
As a member of the Guyanese diaspora, I often reflect on our unique blend of cultures, shaped by the heritage of our African, Indian, and Indigenous ancestors. It's this diversity that makes our gatherings so special, whether it’s enjoying pepperpot during Christmas or celebrating Phagwah with vibrant colors and laughter. Even from afar, I nurture connections with fellow Guyanese, sharing stories and recipes that remind us of home, like the delightful taste of fried fish fresh from the river.
While I take pride in our beautiful homeland, I remain acutely aware of the challenges we face. The struggles for better governance and environmental sustainability weigh heavily on my heart. I believe in the resilience of our people and hope to inspire younger generations to cultivate not only crops but also a brighter future. Together, we can nurture a community that thrives in harmony with nature while honoring the rich heritage that makes us truly Guyanese.
