The baobab tree was a spirtual tree for the enslaved people. People usually call it the tree of life. The reason it's called the tree of life is because it stores the water in the trunk of the tree during rainy seasons & then produce this hairy like fruit when the area is dry. The picture below is the fruit that this spiritual tree produce.
We are the first stewards and ambassadors of a teen program started by the St.Croix National Park Service and Inner Changes. We all currently attending the St.Croix Educational Complex from tenth to twelfth grade. The purpose of our program is to learn the rich history of St.Croix and share it with others. Our knowledge goes back to the arrival of the enslaved people and even further back to the indians of the island. This program allowed us to experience the history of our island at first hand.
