Our first harvest

On the way down to our mess, just right next to the path is this beautiful shrub called sour plum. As you might have come across in a previous blog, the sour plum and the fruit it bears is known to the Maasai as ‘Lama’ or ‘Lamai’. That can’t be a coincidence right?

And it isn’t!

During the six months that we’re open now the sourplum has grown bigger and greener. But for the first time now, it carries fruits too. Bright green at first, they slowly turn yellow and orange. And although a bit sour, they’re pretty good too...
