Australian Native Boab Powder

(Adansonia gregorri)

Our NATIF Boab powder is Ethically and Sustainably Harvested in the Northern parts of Western Australia by a Traditional Custodian along with Indigenous families who are supporting youth in their local and surrounding areas.  The fruit is processed and packaged in a facility which employs young Indigenous workers.

Baobab is the common name for the genus as a whole which is mainly found in Africa and known as Boab in Australia.

An Australian native superfood.  The large Boab, nut-like shell contains the inner fruit that naturally dries directly on the tree to create a powdery sherbet like pulp which surrounds the inner seeds. 

The Boab Powder is highly nutritious and high in vitamins, iron, zinc, protein, potassium, calcium and dietary fibre.

The Boab creamy powder tastes slightly tangy with mild lemon flavours and like a mildly sweet lemon-sherbet.

Indigenous people of Australia have used Boab fruits and other parts of the Boab tree including leaves and young tubers for thousands of years for food and medicine.
