The Mende are a group of people who live primarily within the southern third of Sierra Leone. They live primarily in villages of 70 to 250 residents. There is little or no mechanization; farmers use hoes and machetes, but few other tools. Coffee, cocoa, and ginger are grown as cash crops, whereas rice, pepper, groundnuts, beniseed, and palm oil are grown for local consumption.
