Bananas of course grow abundantly in tropical climates and are a very sustainable crop. As you can see from this picture, these bananas are square shaped. These banana plants were already on the plot of land that is being used for an organic farm and will continue to grow and thrive there.
We also planted chickpeas and they grow very well in the hot and dry climate, they shot up in a matter of week, you can see the fresh green bean pods which you can actually eat like this or dry them and eat later.
We love to eat mangoes so we saved the seeds from the fruit and try to plant them to see if we can grow trees. Mango are more susceptible to pest, so many farmers normally use pesticides with this crop. We strive to avoid this and look for other solutions.
