Moringa recipes
In 2019 we've started with the production of Moringa powder!
Moringa oliefera is truly rich in nutrients. The leaves are rich in Vitamins A and C, calcium, Vitamin B3 and iron.
Our Moringa is handpicked from our garden, dried in the sun and ground into powder. You can add to taste to soups and sauces or use in fruit smoothies.
