The air is sweet. The sun is setting. The chickens are clucking. The sugar cane syrup looks like it's about to bubble over. It is harvesting time. A particularly sweet treat, the syrup, draws people from far and near. Watching the sugar cane grow over months brews anticipation and joy for many Southerners. For this family, harvesting day is a celebration of another year of life and gratitude to our ancestors who obtained our land after emancipation. Since emancipation, The Fields family has lived on the 1-mile loop called Wagon Branch Loop. Like many Black families in the coastal South Carolina Gullah Geechee corridor, the Fields family is fighting to preserve traditions. For the first time since the late 80s, Fields family is having a sugar cane harvest, and it will be documented for a short film titled Harvest.
