We had together prayer that was led by Paul one of the community members.
Alex B asked the community the values and the use of trees in their homes and community. He was after knowing if they are to close or benefit from trees.Mrs Otim said that trees are used for cooking food and building kitchens. She also added that they get food out of them like orange and mangoes. Other members mentioned that trees are for climate change as makes impact since places with high trees receive rain.It acts as wind breaker and save plants and houses from being destroyed by strong wind. Locally some types of trees are herbs to animal and human life.
Alex B told them that trees are for commercial like mvule and musizi. They can be used for construction like houses and bridges. Good shades can be provided by trees,as they seat under them some have fruits for them to eat.Some trees their leaves are eaten by animals.
