#HerVoice in the hills|Huang Hongying and the tea fields of hope

In 2012, Huang Hongying stood in a poor village in Guizhou and made a promise: to turn barren hills into tea gardens. Over the next decade, she led teams to build roads, dig wells, and plant 4,860 hectares of certified organic tea. She paid workers daily – carrying cash by hand – until trust took root. She persevered even when frost destroyed 70 percent of the seedlings. Today, her model supports 309 rural households and trains thousands of people – 83 percent of them women.
