Life and Times in the Venezuelan Paramo

In this collection of photographs, California-born agroecologist Mason London provides us with a glimpse of life in the paramos of the Venezuelan state of Merida. The paramos, a unique ecosystem found in the Andes of Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru (+/- 3,000 to 4,500 meters in altitude), are some of the most historically-utilized agricultural lands in all of Venezuela.
