How the Lee Family Preserves Its Hmong Heritage Through Farming | My Home, NC
Рет қаралды 14,422
Жыл бұрынHmong immigrants Chue and Tou Lee of Lee’s One Fortune Farm in Morganton, NC, grow Asian produce and heirloom rice from the mountains of Laos. The Lees arrived in Marion, NC, in the 1980s after fleeing the Vietnam War via a perilous trek through the jungle. Since then, they’ve worked to share their cultural heritage and commitment to sustainable farming with their community in western NC.
My Home, NC shares the heartwarming stories of the people, culture, food and music of North Carolina. Hosted by Heather Burgiss, the show uncovers and celebrates the hidden gems and histories that make life in our state so unique and enthralling.

Interesting fact: Hmong are the first humans to cultivate and harvest rice in ancient China , then spread it to the rest of the world.

Majority of the Hmong family in NC grows their own vegetables. I don't see why they will buy from them.
