Banyak petani yang mulai meninggalkan pekerjaannya dan sawahnya. Mereka mengadu nasib ke kotaraja. Namun ada beberapa petani yang masih setia dengan panggilannya. Di saat kelesuan jiwa serta kelelahan badan singgah di hati mereka, Dewi Sri yang adalah Dewi Padi berkenan menghampiri petani di sawah mereka, untuk memberikan jamu agar sehat, segar, bersemangat dan berpengharapan meneruskan panggilan hidupnya sebagai petani.
SRI-JAMU (jamu: traditional herbal drink)
Many farmers started leave their job and their field. They searched for job opportunities in town. But there were still some farmers that are loyal with their life call as farmers. When their body are tired and their souls are weary, Dewi Sri (goddess of rice) was willing to come to them to serve a cup of jamu. So the farmers can regain their energy and also life spirit to continue their work and keep the loyalty to their life call.
