When you come from the Coast, these are the packages our parents send from the village. These are called n**i. Not mn**i. Mn**i is the palm tree. Inside the n**i, we have coconut water. Sweet sugary water. No alcohol. Palm wine is tapped from the flowers of the tree not here. From these, you grate/blend the white fleshy part to get coconut milk. The shells which are the hard brown part can be used in many ways. Eg. Decorations, stirring spoons, fuel so much more. Coconut oil is also made from coconut milk. Also this is not a dafu. A dafu is coconut that is yet to mature. It has more water content and the flesh is soft as compared to this. It's outer shell is also green. Can you imagine coming from a place where people pay to come and visit. Karibuni Pwani hasa Kilifi County.
