Ahon, Quezon

To those donating used clothes and beddings, wag naman po sana ung mga unuseable ang ibibigay nyo. (like mga used swimwears at mga pinang first communion ng unang panahon). Mahirap mag sort. Hindi po tambakan ng basura natin ang relief center.
There's a lot of relief centers in our local brgys. Let us rise above all these.

If anyone near me needs to palaba or luto or hot meals, just DM me.

Lucban, Quezon, Philippines – Joining the colorful celebration of Pahiyas Festival, Coca-Cola Beverages Philippines, Inc. (CCBPI)β€”the bottling arm of Coca-Cola in the countryβ€”brings Tapon to Ipon: Basta Klaro, Panalo! program to people of Quezon. Tapon to Ipon is CCBPI’s nationwide collection program for post-consumer clear PET plastic bottles of any brand.

Festival-goers can drop off their used clear PET plastic bottles, regardless of brand, in exchange for Coca-Cola products at the Tapon to Ipon booth located at Patio Rizal, Lucban, Quezon. The pop-up booth will run from May 13 to 15, 2024, from 2:00PM to 10:00PM. Believing in the power of fiestas in bringing the community together, CCBPI aims to help uphold waste-free festival celebrations and foster a culture of responsible waste management among Filipinos.

The goal is for all collected bottles to be diverted to PETValue Philippines, the first bottle-to-bottle recycling facility in the Philippines. PETValue Philippines, located in General Trias, Cavite, is a joint venture of CCBPI with Indorama Ventures, a global sustainable chemical company. It employs the safest and most advanced bottle-to-bottle recycling technology that transforms used clear PET plastic bottles into new food-grade beverage packaging.

Coca-Cola is driven to reach more communities and work with more partners to achieve its World Without Waste vision. Know more about the Tapon to Ipon program through this link.

OF PLANTING RICE AND THE BROKEN FOOD SYSTEM

Since childhood, we’ve been hearing the folk song, β€œMagtanim ay di biro” roughly translated as planting rice is not a joke and I was able to confirm this when I joined a farm trip at Capas, Tarlac organized by Good Food Community.

My grandparents were vegetable farmers in Benguet and my childhood summer days would entail me and my brother going to the mountains to help out in the work – tilling the soil and watering the plants. Kids in the area would taunt how us, the city boys, didn’t know what we were doing. They couldn’t any more be right.

These were my thoughts while we traversed through dirt mounds to get to the rice field. Once we got to the field, we couldn’t wait to plunge into the mud. Time to get dirty, although soil is not dirt or dirty for that matter. And apparently, soil has anti-depressant microbes. No wonder it was fun walking around the mud barefooted while we applied carbonized rice hull to the soil. It could just be the novelty of doing something new but it could also be the β€œhappy” microbes working its magic.

Using a tilling machine, our farmer guide plowed the soil effortlessly then we started planting. There were 11 of us who worked on an area which is around 200 square meters and it took us almost an hour to complete. Typically, a single farmer can do the work for two hours and gets paid P80.

After three months, it was harvest time.The overly bright sun was up so sweat trickled down my forehead the whole time. I didn’t mind the itchy scratch of the plant as I gained some β€œbattle scars.” I quietly, with serious concentration, I might add, worked on five lines or so of rice stalks.

We then had to haul the harvested rice stalks, dry them up, and remove the grains from the stalks. These later on would still have to undergo the de-hulling process before they can be ready for cooking.

Bawat butil ay mahalaga (Every grain is important). This line resonates with me even more as I got to see the behind-the-scenes of rice production. In a culture of excess such as ours where food is taken for granted and is thrown away or wasted, I wish everyone would be required to grow their own food so we could realize how difficult it is.

The average age of farmers in the Philippines is 58. Despite being an agricultural country, our farmers don’t get much support and are still considered poorest of the poor. Farming is looked down upon. The farmers themselves wouldn’t want their children to follow the same path as they don’t see any hope in it. I couldn’t blame them but who would feed us in the future?
