BAOBAB: TREE OF LIFE

The Baobab Tree (Adansonia Digitata) of Western Africa is thought to be one of the oldest life forms on the continent. It grows in response to site conditions and is easily recognizable because of it’s the monumental scale amongst the landscape. The massive trunk retains water during dry months to produce edible fruits. The tree is also used by humans and animals alike for shade and shelter.

ADINKRA: SYMBOL LANGUAGE

Adinkra symbols represent popular proverbs and maxims of the Akan people (modern day Ghana and Cote d’Ivoire). These symbols find their roots in sixteenth century woven fabrics and are primarily used today as stamped patterns on textile products.

NEA ONNIM NO SUA A, OHU “He who does not know can know from learning”

symbol of knowledge, life-long education and continued quest for knowledge

WOFORO DUA PA A “when you climb a good tree”

symbol of support, cooperation and encouragement

WAWA ABA “seed of the wawa tree”

symbol of hardiness, toughness and perseverance
