- Notes
- When Alex B arrived at Bukudumira,he found the members waiting for him at the usual meeting place.They had prayer together that was led by Mwogezi Moses of the members. The members discussed how they can care for the trees they planted from kibo group. The trees they were mvule,musizi and giant lira. Swaibu Kigoolo suggested that trees should be protected by putting hedges around them. That will help them from being eaten by animals and also children from destroying them. He also added that,the hedges should be made up of strong materials,like wood or poles.Nabirye Fatima suggested that constant monitoring of the trees will be of more value. She said that it will help them to know how the tree are doing on daily basis.The members should love the tress they planted to the point when they grow,they will use them for firewood,construction or sale and get money. Wakudumira also a member suggested that the tree should not be surrounded by bush as it may lead to the trees not grow healthy. He added that when trees grow close to the bush one fire catches the bush for the case of bush burning, fire may end up burning the grass will end up burning the tree. The trees should be watered when the season is hot to allow the trees to grow. Alex B thanked the members for their contributions to wards the caring of the trees.He asked them to corporate and see that trees are cared for them to grow.
