Three Amigos

Uploaded: February 15, 2012

Description

We stopped at an outdoor produce stand near Hookipa, Maui to buy some veggies and fruit.
I was captivated by these three coconuts all alone on this bright green shelf. I thought they made a nice still life.
(Still researching if these are coconuts...would have been easier had I asked.)

See if I can Help In the Carib the people eat the green and feed the yellow to the pigs & chickens. The last one I have NO CLUE ABOUT.
Was told this by a Woman on the Roatan Islands off Honduras a few years ago.
