Gardening in these remote islands is more then just a hobbie but an essential practice vital for survival. Walking barefoot through rough terrain to find the areas with the most suitable soil, sections of forest are burnt and cleared with basic hand tools such as machete and axe. The trees are then removed or used for stabilising the soil. This is when the women of the village come together to dig and plant the seeds of various staples. Today Poppy learns the way of planting a variety of yams that will later be remembered as 'Poppy's yams', signifying not only the day that a yachtie came to learn, but also get her hands dirty and help the local community. This act of unity is why these villagers have been able to thrive off growing their own food for so many generations.
