we have been doing domestication since Hananoie was opened. Now we have two Buffalo and six Goats and some Baby Goats. Buffaloes are important for Hananoie because they give us fresh milk everyday.
Nowadays, farmers looks busy in countryside of Nepal. We can see around here people are harvesting millet. Still in Nepal, we do harvesting in traditional way. This millet were planted in May. It is use for food (especially” Dhindo”, a famous food in Nepal). Dhindo is a very strong food.
Well, we made butter or “ghee” in Hananoie. Ghee is made from yogurt. It is easily made in a wooden pot by using a paddle to stir the yogurt. We made it in the early morning.
On 24 Nov, we planted potatoes in our field. We use buffaloes’ and goats’ dung as a fertilizer to grow organic vegetable in Hananoie. It takes 90 days to be ready for harvesitng. This potatoes will be served to our guests and for our own consumption.
Today me, Suresh accompanied a Japanese guest to Milan Chowk, the gateway of Hananoie. It was a minitrek to get down to Milan Chowk. We moved at 1 pm. It took about one hour. On the way we can see Mardi khola (river) and lachock valley and terrace fields. We could see lovely village (called “Jhigirka”).
