Every time we have our cup of tea, it is good to feel grateful for those who pluck and process the leaves.
During our recent visit to a tea garden, we noticed that these women do not carry the bags on their back while picking. Instead they rest the bag on the bush itself! A novel and practical way! They lessen their burden in a creative way!
It is a delight to watch how their hands move artistically and delicately!
They work for about one hundred days in a year and live rest of the year on what they earn! Their struggles are too many to believe!
