I've always dreamt of having my own farm, that's why in this episode of Woman In Action, we'll be talking to people who have achieved their dream of building their own farms in Batangas!

Veteran journalists Charie Villa and Ces Drilon will be showing us why they've decided to choose the live the farm life!

(Erratum: Charie Villa acknowledges she is not an expert and that the Mangkono she showed in the show is actually Red Penda not Mangkono, as Philippine Native Tree Enthusiast Macay Enginco pointed out.)

Plus we're going to explore more about BATANGAS; a perfect tourist destination near Manila! From their Kapeng Barako, Heritage Houses to their Balisong,
we're going to literally dive deep to show you the Best of Batangas!

We hope you enjoy this episode!

  • This is the kind of program Philippine media should focus on so that Filipinos will be more aware and motivated

    Simple lang ang lesson ng episode na ito: invest on agriculture dahil yan ang strength ng bansa. Maganda yung konsepto dito na may partner farmer. I think it is high time na magkaroon ng private support sa mga farmers to help them and promote farming itself sa bagong henerasyon. Kung hindi kaya ng gobyerno, kayang-kaya ng kapwa Pilipino. ❤
  • I don't normally comment on YT, but I can't help to leave a message on this video. I live in UK , this episode inspire me to retire in the Phil and dream to live in farm like this. Peaceful and simple life. I love your style and way of presenting your topic on your channel. You are simple and yet elegant , talented ,smart, funny and with a good heart. You are inspiration to Filipino woman. Keep up the good work .God bless!

    Na in-love ako sa kape dahil may tanim noon ang aking mamay (lolo in Batangas), Natikman ko yun nung maliit pa ko. Ngayon, naaalala ko pa rin yung lasa pero di ako makahanap ng kaparehang lasa sa kahit anong kape, lokal, barako, sagada coffee, SB, etc.

    Your vlogs are very informative and inspiring. Thank you for showcasing /tackling local situations and also mixing it up with foreign content, you give perspective to your viewers how it is living abroad and patronizing and loving our country. Keep it up may your channel level up the breadth of thinking especially of the young generation.
