Hello everyone. How are you today? I hope all is well with you and your family. My land and my family have 3 locations. The first location is the area of home and small garden in the village. In this home garden I grow vegetables, fruits and flowers. But mostly I grow vegetables. Fruits and vegetables in the home garden, I grow them to eat.
The second location is the longan plantation. My and family's longan plantation is 600 meters from our home but next to the village. There are other fruits and vegetables in this longan location too. But most of them are longan trees. And longan is my family's economic field crops. My family grows longans to sell.
And the last location is the fields and farms. It is about 2 kilometers from our home. We can walk or drive to here. We grow rice to eat and sometimes grow corn to sell. The rice we grow is sticky rice. But this year we planted less sticky rice than every year. Several days ago our family's rice field had just harvested sticky rice. And we dried the sticky rice around my wife's uncle's house. (The house is next to our house). Because there is a wide yard where sticky rice can be dried.

Today we put sticky rice in the rice sacks to stock up for eat next year.

Finally I would like to share krathongs for offering and worshiping spirit house in the northern. My wife's mother and my wife made them as offerings and offerings to the spirit house. This is the belief of ancient people and inherit northern thai ceremony to the present. These are the krathongs for offering and worshiping the spirit house that they make. Krathong made from banana leaves and put flowers, incense sticks, candles and food in the krathongs.

Banana trees in the home garden.

The wife's mother and my wife make krathongs for offerings and worship to the spirit house.

They also make banana leaf cones filled with flowers, incense sticks and candles for worshiping buddha images too.
