The rains have arrived -- a month late -- but they are finally here! After missing the expected 'short' rains in October-November, the production of food depended on the timely arrival of the 'long' rains in March-April. When March came and went without a drop, we feared watching crops wither in the fields and the need for Food Aid in Karatu District. A huge burden has been lifted and the transformation from fear and resignation to smiles and celebration is truly great to behold.
