While travelling around Grand Cayman, Little Cayman
and Cayman Brac, one common thing that I find is that there are lots of coconut
trees all over these islands. They are cut down by landscapers or property
owners and thrown away in bins and also pruned in preparation for the hurricane
season.
One thing is clear, this tree with its fruit, is grossly underutilized
across all three islands. It can be used to manufacture products that can provide
any hardworking persons with a decent income while still providing a product
that is also healthy for the body. The milk extracted
from the meat will aide in the manufacturing of most of these products. The milk is also used in
preparing delicious meals, drink and pastries.
According to Well (2011), Heritage studies is defined as an interdisciplinary investigation of the relationship between people and the representation, interpretation, and valuation of the past with the goal of using this information towards a practical end.
Heritage place is a specific area or site, perhaps a large
area such as a whole region or landscape, or a small area such as a feature or
building, which is valued by people for its natural and/or cultural heritage
significance (Wells 2011). "Heritage" is constructed from values and meanings derived from social, cultural, and personal experience, while (Wells 2011).
