Frogs, Frogs and more Frogs
No, I didn’t eat frogs. I want to talk about frogs. Today I was walking from my house in the back 40 of the farm, (my suitcases still lives there and I go there once a day after working to take a cold shower and hang out for a minute, see picture below), when I looked into the waterway that flanks the path and saw this:


If you zoom into the photo on the right, you will see they are tiny, tiny tadpoles. There must have been 200 to 300 of them. They were kinda cute. There are also frogs everywhere on the farm. At night, if you walk outside, the sound of frogs chirping or croaking is extremely loud. So why are we still talking about frogs? Well, because their presence makes me happy.
Frogs are bioindicators — they reflect back to us the ecological health of our environment. Their permeable skin (they actually breathe through their skin partly), makes them especially vulnerable to environmental contaminants, such as agricultural, industrial, and pharmaceutical chemicals. If. You have a lot of frogs in your environment, it means you are in a healthy, clean system. One more huge kudo for everyone here at Sunny Farm Vietnam. It makes me proud to be a part of something that is making its part of the planet a little bit better.
