Did you know that apples grow on a tree? Also, oranges and bananas grow on trees. Grapes grows on vines. A few people may not know the original of those fruits.
Did you know where dates grow? They grow on a tree. Most grow high up in palm trees about 30 to 40 feet tall. But now, some dates grow a few inches above the ground.
This new variety was imported to Congo. Initially, it a dream come true of not having to climb tall trees. However, some say they are too accessible now to everyone.
Rural poor Congolese families extract cooking oil from the palm dates.
