Andrew tells the story;
‘The tree is the life of a person. Their kids have grown up eating the fruit from the tree and honey from the bottom of the tree. The tree is giving something back to the future. The young people protect the tree, it’s what the old people used to do. It’s the history, looking out for the future.’
After the tree dies, new trees start growing after the rain starts, like the next generation of young people grow.
