Ecuador's Fog Fprest: Mists over the Desert

Season 17 Episode 1707

Host David Yetman travels to the agrarian community of Loma Alta, Ecuador. Though logging was once the cornerstone of the Loma Alta community, the current inhabitants now realize the importance of the fog forest to their livelihood. Fog is captured in the lush vegetation and drips to the ground, eventually flowing down to water the crops of Loma Alta.
