Summary
editDescriptionTimia niger well boy.jpg |
English: Children in the oasis village of Timia, Niger, at the southern edge of the Sahara desert fill their containers every morning. The mountain village gets enough water to grow fruit year round.
Brothers Aruba and Alison say their grandfather's fruit grove was the first in Timia. They sell oranges and mangoes to tourists for 20 cents each. They also sell dates, raisins, and grapefruits. Theirs is the only mechanical water well in the village. During the hottest months, the water level goes down, but they say they still manage to water the garden. Even during the country's droughts in the early 1970s and in 2005, the garden and family survived. |
