Day 5 we did more work on the water harvesters (pilas) and at this point I have worked on both pilas at the two different sites. It was amazing to see the progress we've made. When we started it was just ground with a lot of dirt and one pila even had a pile of dirt and blue tarp that we had to shovel off before even getting to digging in the ground. Something new we did was pick coffee beans today and that was really fun. I didn't care for the steep hills in the forest that we had to walk through, but I managed to do it. I picked coffee beans with one of the community members, Irma, and man was she fast. We picked soooo many. Everyone was really impressed when we finished for the day. Other than that, the day was about the same as the others.
