The Farm & Farmer

In 2017, we purchased additional land in close proximity to Sopha Phal's farm to be able to grow another generation of pepper. We came a lot closer to our goal of paying the workers on the pepper farm an above-average wage. We were able to appoint a long-time harvest helper from Sopha Phal, who previously earned his money as a day laborer, as a foreman. Pu Maneth is reliable and also knows what is important in traditional pepper cultivation. For him and his family, the job as a foreman means security and the opportunity to provide his children with a better education. He moved with his family into newly built accommodation on the new site. For us, it was basically the birth of Uncle’s Pepperfarm.
