Organic Rough Lemons – 500g

We source our rough lemons from two exceptional providers: Ol Kerii farm and Sunfresh organics. 

Ol Kerii Farm

Ol Kerii Farm, operated by Philip and Katy Leaky, is nestled in the Nguruman Hills of Kenya. This farm is deeply integrated with the local Maasai community, producing organic condiments such as jams, chutneys, honey, and luxury white chia seeds. Ol Kerii’s farming practices not only focus on organic, farm-to-table methods but also emphasize conservation. By sourcing Marula nuts from Tanzania and southern Kenya, they have contributed to the preservation of thousands of Marula trees, which are now valued and nurtured by locals for their nuts rather than being cut down for firewood or building material.

Sunfresh

Sunfresh is a family-owned business established in 2018, committed to providing 100% certified organic food. They practice agroecology to boost food yields while preserving the environment. Sunfresh sources its produce from Kilimohai certified farms and suppliers, ensuring the highest standards of freshness and authenticity.
