In the heart of the Batad Rice Terraces, Nanay Tessie leads the once-a-year Tinawon rice harvest, a ritual that honors generations of Ifugao heritage. 🌾
To celebrate the season’s end, the community makes Lipog, a traditional rice wine crafted from their precious harvest. From hand-picking the grains to fermenting the wine, every step is a shared act of bayanihan—a testament to the spirit of unity and resilience that binds the people of Batad. 🧑🏼🌾
This is a rare glimpse into an enduring tradition.
