Farmers from Keteira village
These are some of the hard working farmers of Keteira, Moala Fiji. They walk 10 kilometers up the mountains to reach their farms. The yaqona harvested is then carried on shoulders back to the villages to be clean and processed for the market. A lot of energy and resource is exhausted to mundane activities before the product hits the market. This was taken in July 2012.
