“Every lot can answer for itself.”

— Omnisource traceability promise

Our baobab seed oil is wild-harvested, collected from living trees by local collector groups — most of them women — in the drylands of Kitui, Makueni and the Kilifi coast. No tree is cut. No spray ever touches these trees; they simply grow. Every bag is tagged with its collection area on the spot. That tag becomes the lot code on your Certificate of Analysis.
