Living in a province is much better than living in the city away from a pollution and toxic people.
Im happy living in a simple life which i get some fresh air, eating fresh fruits and fresh vegetables.

In our land we raised chickens we plants just to sustain in our daily needs.Becuz during these pandemic everything is expensive so we plants fruits and veggies in these way we can spend less.

These is a dwarft coconut tree also known as a tree of life becuz everything from the leaves,fruits,and trunks is useful.
These dwarft coconut is already 5 years old.
In my country the leaves and the trunk of a coconut is used for building houses.They also build a nipa hut specially in every resort or near at the beach.

The milk of a coconut is used for making oils or virgen coconut oil that i always used for my hair.
I always make a buko juice if there is a young coconut available .We put condensed milk and sky flakes mix it together in a pitcher together with an ice cubes. It is very common in the market by selling buko juice though its a littlebit expensive.

We wrap the jackfruit in a sack just to protect from other insects and we will wait the fruit to ripe before we eat .
Sometimes we cook it as a jam for toppings of the bread.
