The origin

Eighty-eight islands. One harvest a year.

The Bijagós archipelago sits off the coast of Guinea-Bissau — tidal channels, mangroves and islands where giant baobabs have stood for centuries. The fruit dries naturally on the branch, and it's picked only when it's ready.

This isn't a commodity bought on an exchange. It's a direct relationship with the islands and the people who harvest there. The season runs February to May, and when it's done, it's done — which is why supply is capped, and why the price rises as the season's harvest sells.

Early signups lock in the lowest price. As more of the harvest is reserved, the price rises — this is a real, limited harvest, not a marketing trick.

The people

Who picks your baobab.

The fruit is picked by local adult work teams on the islands. They're paid above the local average, and part of every season goes to supporting workers' families.

We don't have formal certifications yet — this is year one, and we'd rather tell you that than print a label we haven't earned. What we can do is show you: the people, the pay, and the process, on film.
