The Harvest of Sinaloa
People have
wrong idea about of the harvest in Sinaloa. People believe that Sinaloa only
produces a marijuana harvest. Everyone ignores or disregards the eighteen
counties and that produce different kinds of fruit, vegetables, fish and even
venom snake, without forgetting the three most important rivers that are the
Tamazula River, Humaya River, and Culiacan River.
Sinaloa is
well known to be the first state at tomatoes harvests. Also grow eggplants,
cucumbers, carrots, squash and fruit has watermelon, strawberries, mangos,
oranges, tamarindo. There are grains like peanuts; another important harvest is
the sugarcane. Clodomiro Picado
institute raises around eight hundred sneak to subtract the venom of the sneak
to prepare antivenin, to help people who have been bite for sneak. This process
is called sneak venom harvest.
Sinaloa has
three important rivers that are Tamazula, Humaya and Culiacan. These rivers
provide every county of water for the harvest. Their beaches are: Mazatlan is
the principal beach because is visited for many tourists from different
countries in holy week and carnival. Other beaches like Altata and El Tambor
also are visited for their citizens. Sinaloa beaches produce produces shrimp,
tuna, sea bass, sardines, and marlin. Mangroves are some of most known trees
because on which they oysters grow.
Sinaloa
state is border for friendly state such as: by north for Sonora State, at the
south by Nayarit state, North East by Chihuahua and by the East the Durango
state and finally by the West Sinaloa is border by the Golf of California.
Most people
who work in the field of Sinaloa came from different states from Mexico because
of the agriculture and water that the state Sinaloa has; allowed to develop
many opportunities of jobs for people.
In
conclusion, even though Sinaloa State offered jobs opportunities, for those who
want to work in the harvest. Most of the people that work on the fields they
lack many needs such as dignity live. They do not get enough paid to live dignity.
For this reason before explained above some of those people preferred to work
marijuana grows. For this wrong decision this people made that the State
Sinaloa is well known for the marijuana harvest.

Los Guerreros Celebrations
Los
Guerreros is a beautiful little town in Mexico. It’s a place that if you see it
you would want to live there. I have a lot of memories with my family, special
when we do the celebration in my house, but first we went to the church and
then do the parties. In my town when they celebrate December 12 and Christmas
they do a big celebration. In my town we celebrate December 12 and Christmas.
The most important celebration is on December 12, the day
of the Virgin the Guadalupe. In my town, we always go to the mananitas at the
church at 5:00 in the morning. After that all the people follow the music at
the house of the people to play the music because some people pay the music.
Then later we take the Virgencita on a parade.
Same peoples go dancing and others hold the Virgencita. However, at
night we have a big feast and a big dance where every every one goes. And I
like and never forget that day because all my family comes together to
celebrate the Virgen of Guadalupe and my
mom birthday.
Christmas is another big celebration as it is the day
Jesus was born. That day in my town all the people have Posadas when some
people stay in the house and other people stay outside and sing. Then when that ends, all the people go inside
and eat bred, tamales and posole then we broke a piñata and the celebration
continue every day instill December 25. In December people make a big
celebration. Everybody in the family comes together in the house and makes a
lot of food and at night Santa Claus comes. The next day everybody opens the presents but
the little kids wake up at 5:00 in the morning to see what they got for Santa
Clause and I like that because if they don’t got a big present they get very
happy.
In conclusion, I like the December 12 and Christmas
celebration because all my family gets together. However, only miss one thing
does days my mom and my dad. Now they
always stay with us in those special days. I pass those days very happy because
I have all my kids in my house with me and the celebrations are very good.
