This photo shows an isolated community in the interior of Liberia. Most communities in the interior are cut off during the rainy season because the roads are impassable making mission aviation essential to interior ministries such as Samaritan’s Purse and SIM. People in the interior subsist on what they can grow in their gardens—country rice, sweet potatoes (for greens and the tubers), cassava leaves, etc. But agriculture in general has not yet recovered from the civil war(s). Most food is still imported.
