Tortillas From Scratch

In September, the rains are not as frequent and by October, usually the corn is ready for harvesting. Therefore throughout October and November we harvest the ears of corn, transporting them back to our carga ("corn bin"). We fill the carga and then at the end of November and December we sort the ears of corn by color, and size.

During these months, we are the busiest with our work and don't have a lot of time to rest. Therefore we always hope our health is in the best condition, as the weather does start to become very cold at night, sometimes below zero degrees Celsius, and it becomes easy to catch a cold.
