All right now we're looking at some B boxes here. They do, they do raise bees here locally at the research center. Now these are going to be late g bees late g honey because we have the main feedstock or the main food source for the bees. Are these giant laid sheet trees. I see Anacostia right in front but that's not large enough of an influence. And then we're looking at coffee again being planted underneath this canopy.

Now what trees are this up here these are the product keys. These are what is specifically used by the board partner okay these but this is a very good set or the coffee. Yes, as I had recommended earlier these are Akasha. I told you about the Akasha in other lectures throughout Throughout the courses that I that I teach, if anything, it's in the local dialect here. They're called EPL, EPL, but they are a member of their member of the Akasha family. And these you can always tell the Akasha let me come close enough for this.

You can always tell most of the Akasha by by these these small leaves here and also by their seed pods, which are another tell tell tale aspect of them. This is not a good example, but there's a dried seed pod right there. But yeah, they are sparse shade trees, which give us if you look up here, you're getting an almost ideal canopy have a 5050 balance between sun and shade that are above these these coffees. You see the coffees are growing slightly taller than most of the coffees here. How old are these coffee bushes? How many years more than five, six years old.

So I'm sorry for the for the darkness but these trees look to be a little over five feet tall are certainly under two meters tall and they are five to six years old. We're we're looking at some very healthy cherries coming off of these. Although it is quite quite a dark situation here. But I am again very interested in showing you these these Akasha Let me zoom in again on some more seed pods, so that you can get an idea of what I'm talking about with tree variety. Now, as I said before, you can find a casca almost no matter where you're living, because they go all over the world. They are nitrogen fixers, they are some of the best.

They are lagoons. Actually they're classified as a lagoon. As soon as they hit the ground, they start fertilizing and enriching your soil nitrifying your soil. So these are and they are very fast growers and heavily recommended for being shade trees.
