Harvest green tea my hometown!
I was born and raised in Thái Nguyên - Việt Nam. My hometown is famous for its delicious tea.

Green Tea of Thai Nguyen - Viet Nam
From a young age I had to get acquainted with tea harvest, like two children in the photo below.
two children are harvesting tea
I remember the first day I only used one hand to harvest tea.
As the children today, want to use two hands to harvest the tea must have a long practice. Why? Because when you use two hands to harvest tea it is harder.
One more important reason is; Tea harvesting must be fast and tea is not crushed. This makes the quality of tea the best and reduces the labor day.

Weather!
You know that when farmers work outdoors, there will be unavoidable negative effects from the weather. That may be rain or sunshine ...
My friend is harvesting tea in the sun
My friend is harvesting tea in the sun. He uses two palm leaves that are tied together to cover the sun. Summer in Thai Nguyen very sunny and high temperature sometimes up to more than 40 degrees Celsius, if not covered so will be heatstroke.
Sunshine and high temperature makes the tea leaves are harvested easily withered. If the tea leaves wilted by high temperature , the quality of tea will not be good anymore . So when the harvest is about an hour in the sun, the picker must take home to preserve immediately to keep the quality of the green tea.
My relatives are harvesting tea in the rain
On rainy days when the tea reaches the harvest time, without harvesting in time, the tea will get old quickly.
If the tea is older, the amount of tea harvested will be greatly reduced. But when the tea is wet with rain water. If we continue to harvest, the tea will be red and the quality of tea will be reduced. This is a difficult thing for the tea maker in my hometown.
My relatives are burning mosquito repellent to harvest
My hometowns have many hilly, farmers grow tea trees mainly at the foot of the hill. So when we harvest tea regularly mosquitoes in the mountains down. So sometimes picking tea still have to burn incense to chase mosquitoes away.
