My grandfather started to settle 1 acre of land in the 1950's. over the next 50 years he worked hard to expand the farm to hundreds of acres. His 7 sons work the land now that he passed away. When we are grown up, my cousins and I will inherit the land. The farm produces honey, coconuts, tomatoes, bananas, plantains, yucca, mango, avocado, papaya and has chickens, bees, goats, 1 cow and 3 horses.  I will travel to Dominican Republic this summer to see the farm. One day I will inherit a part of the land too.

Place(s): Estebania Dominican Republic
