Yeah! That's what I'm talking about! Some tropic-specific permaculture material.
Well, here in Costa Rica I live in the province of Guanacaste, so we definitely see a lot of them.
We don't even bother picking up the pods for the cows, we buy those stupid concentrate bags instead... hopefully I'll convince everybody to switch gradually to real sustainable life.
We have another tree here that they call sandal. It produces huge, woody pods with a molasses-like substance inside and some local take it with hot milk as a tonic. Does anyone know the botanical name?
