Week 25: Farewells

This week, I began wrapping up experiments in the lab and made my final village visits. It was bittersweet to say goodbye to the farmers, because working with them and visiting their fields was my favorite part of my Tanzania trip.  I’ll keep many good memories of the farmers that I worked with, and I’ll always appreciate how welcoming they were and how helpful they were during our field research.

Pics from this week below!

I could have posted serious farewell pictures, but I think these capture a bit more of the fun we had in the villages.
