Greetings! My name is Deon Simon, a proud farmer residing in the lush landscapes of Baramita, Barima-Waini, Guyana. Here, the vibrant greenery and rich soil allow me to cultivate a variety of crops, from cassava to rice, sustaining both my family and the wider community. Growing up in a country that is famous for its unique culinary delights, like pepperpot and roti, I have a deep appreciation for the flavors that reflect our diverse heritage. As I work the land, I often think of my fellow Guyanese in the diaspora, sharing recipes and stories that connect us across borders.
Living in Baramita, I am surrounded by the breathtaking beauty of our natural resources, including the breathtaking waterfalls and the warmth of our indigenous culture. I feel a strong sense of responsibility to preserve our traditions and share them with the younger generations. The spirit of camaraderie and resilience runs deep in our community, especially as we navigate the challenges of modern-day life—whether it’s the increasing foreign presence or the struggles many face due to economic disparities. Each day, I strive not only to improve my livelihood but also to uplift those around me.
As a farmer, I am committed to sustainable practices that honor our land while ensuring that we can provide for future generations. I believe in the power of community and the importance of coming together during tough times. While our country still grapples with issues of inequality and governance, there is an undeniable bond that ties us all as Guyanese. Let’s celebrate our home—wherever we may be—by sharing stories, supporting one another, and staying proud of our rich heritage.
