The age old methods of farming by the Lenca people continue until the present day.  They burn the forest, they make their milpas and they harvest their corn and beans.  Here in the cool mountains of Intibuca they also grow potatoes, peaches, apples, myriad kinds of vegetable and berries.  Here are some pictures of farming in Intibuca.
