WHY WE HAVE COCONUT TREES….Once upon a time, there was a chief who had a daughter named alisa. Alisa had longed to meet a friend.
One day, she was washing herself in a lake near by when a eel came by. Alisa and the eel talked for a long time, when it was time for her to go home, she wanted her father to meet the eel. So Alisa brought her father to the lake where the eel was waiting. After her father talked with the eel, he found the eel very disturbing so he ordered his daughter to stay away from the eel.
After she stopped talking to the eel, she found out she was pregnant. So the chief ordered his men to kill the eel.
The men killed the eel and chopped of his head and gave it to Alisa. So Alisa then buried his head next to her garden. So everyday she would water it until it grew to a coconut tree. That’s why a coconut have 3 hole. the 2 holes are the eel’s eyes and the 1 hole is the mouth.
So that’s how coconut trees were created.
