Spotted on a stroll through the moringa crop. Fun fact: A group of guinea fowl is called a confusion. 🐦🌿

Our products are made using the leaves of the Moringa oliefera tree. We’ve packaged the dried moringa leaves in different ways for you to consume. Steep a tea bag in hot water with a dollop of honey, add a teaspoon of the finely ground powder into your dishes or take a few moringa powder capsules on the go. Pick your preference!

Did you know that ALL parts of the Moringa oliefera tree can be used?

- The flowers are used whole in salads, pressed into a juice and brewed as tea.
- The seeds can be eaten fresh or cooked but are generally cold pressed to form an oil that is used topically for skin health. They are also used to purify water.
- The pods are often cooked when they are young in the same way you would cook green beans or asparagus.
- The leaves are the most versatile and nutritious part of the plant. They are harvested and can be consumed fresh, cooked or once dried.
- The bark of the trunk can be brewed and used for its antibiotic properties.
- The roots offer a concentrated form of the many compounds found throughout the rest of the plant. We don’t recommend consuming the root.

Who doesn’t love a good ‘before & after’ pic

Who doesn’t love a good ‘before & after’ pic? Taken ten years apart (with many improvements, sweat, tears, and audits in-between)! Our drying & processing facility is FSSC22000, Ecocert, ZABS and Halaal Certified. This is where it all happens – here is where we rinse, dry, grade, mill, sieve and package our moringa oleifera crop. A powerhouse, for sure!

Our bodies are designed to eat from farm to fork.

Our bodies are designed to eat from farm to fork. Choosing foods that are ‘from the farm’ – unprocessed, whole foods filled with the nutrients that nature intended, is the best way to feed your family. Add a teaspoon of moringa powder to the next smoothie, soup, or curry you prepare for yourself and your family. Your body will readily absorb the 92 different nutrients and love you for it.

A short answer to the question we get asked all the time – ‘What is Moringa?’ - It is a multi-purpose herbal plant that has been used for centuries as a food and an alternative for medicinal purposes worldwide.

It's been 10 years since our family established Mo

It's been 10 years since our family established Moringa Initiative. Our Moringa oleifera crop has been one that has created a significant impact on our family and community. The discovery of the plant’s nutritional benefits led us to set out on a mission to start a new venture that would create employment and nourish our Zambian community. We cleared 15 HA of land, built a drying unit & processing plant, built homes and a crèche for the newly employed farming families and their children, purchased seeds from Malawian farmers, and planted the seeds of our new venture. What a pivotal moment and a wonderful time to reflect on all the rewards we have reaped from this crop.

Moringa is known for its potential to promote heal

Moringa is known for its potential to promote healthy skin and hair due to its high nutrient content. Here are some ways in which Moringa can help with skin and hair health:

💚 Rich in antioxidants: Moringa is a rich source of antioxidants, including vitamin C, beta-carotene, and quercetin. These antioxidants help to protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals, which can contribute to premature ageing and skin damage.

💚 Anti-inflammatory properties: Moringa has anti-inflammatory properties that can help to soothe irritated skin and reduce inflammation. This can be particularly helpful for conditions like acne, eczema, and psoriasis.

💚 Promotes collagen production: Moringa contains essential amino acids, including proline and glycine, which are important for collagen production. Collagen is a protein that is essential for healthy skin, hair, and nails.

💚 Moisturising properties: Moringa oil is a popular ingredient in skincare products due to its moisturising properties. It is easily absorbed by the skin and can help to improve skin texture and hydration.

Moringa can be given to children, but it is important to consult with a pediatrician before giving it to them. The appropriate form and dosage may vary depending on the child's age, weight, and health condition. 🧒

In general, Moringa can be given to children in the form of Moringa powder or capsules, and the dosage can vary depending on the child's age and weight. For example, a typical dose for a child may be 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of Moringa powder mixed into food or drink once or twice a day. It is important to start with a lower dose and gradually increase it as needed.

It is also important to note that Moringa should not be used as a substitute for a balanced and nutritious diet for children. While Moringa is a nutrient-dense superfood, it is important to ensure that children are also getting a variety of other healthy foods in their diet. 🍎

Again, it is always best to consult with a paediatrician before giving Moringa or any other supplement to children.

Is Moringa safe to take during pregnancy?

While Moringa is generally considered safe and nutrient-rich, it is recommended that pregnant women avoid consuming Moringa supplements or extracts as there is limited research on their safety during pregnancy. 🐣

Moringa leaves or powder in food quantities are generally considered safe and nutritious for pregnant women, but it's important to consult with a healthcare provider before consuming Moringa or any other dietary supplement during pregnancy.

Additionally, pregnant women should avoid consuming Moringa roots or bark as they may contain certain alkaloids that can be harmful during pregnancy.
