The Tree with a Thousand Uses

It is known that the coconut tree is the "tree of life" because of its many uses but many people don’t know that there is a tree that offers more benefits than the coconut tree. This tree is known to the locals of Bancod, Indang as the Irok tree. The residents have been creating products out of the tree since the old times and they made this one of their primary sources of income. The products that the tree generates are not only for the appetite but it can be used also as tools for our daily lives that will help us ease our trouble in our homes. These products are the pride and joy of the people of Bancod for as long as they can remember.

Irok has been a part of the lives of the barangay and up to this day they have been utilizing this wonder tree because of what the tree offers to them. The vastness of what the tree offers is amazing. It is not limited to just its fruits or leaves you can almost use every part of the tree. In the future we may even see more uses for the trees. It’s a tree worth calling “A Tree with a Thousand Uses”.
