Happy end of the week to hiver's
Today has been a very busy and interesting day for me.
Today my landlady harvested her Palm-fruits so I helped her in parking them out from the bush, although it was stressful but I was happy helping her because she is an old woman who has always been so nice to me.
We didn't do the harvesting alone, she paid someone to tap the palm- fruits and also tream the branches for it to be smooth. one of the tenants also came and joined me in the parking process like wise her grandson.
THE ECONOMIC IMPORTANT OF PALM-FRUITS
The fruits can be process to palm-oil popularly known has red oil, which is used in cooking all kinds of food. it is used for both local dishes and foreign delicacy like Atama soup, Afang soup, Vegetable soup, Banga soup, sauce and Stew.
The palm branches can be used for making roof's for tents like in the olden days, the leaves is used to make Raffa bags, clothes and even shoes. And palm-leaves is used to make broom sticks which everybody has in their homes.
The dry branches serves as a fire wood for cooking.
And the tree itself prevent air pollution.
Though it was stressful but it was fun 🤹🤹🤹.
I hope you had a nice time.
