Anamalai Nutmeg - Whole Spice
Art: ANA-DIA-0443
Description
Grown by Harish Manoj Kumar & Karthikeyan Palaniswamy on their family estate at the base of the Western Ghats alongside their award-winning Anamalai Cacao. Your nutmeg is fully tree ripened for maximum flavor and oil content, which keeps it aromatic in your kitchen for longer!
Manoj is a regenerative farmer and has converted the entire estate to be 100% chemical free since 2012, a change that has caused the nutmeg trees with their shallow root systems to really flourish and transform as the soil has gotten more and more nourishment.
At Diaspora, sustainability means investing in practices that are regenerative - whether for the soil, for farm workers, or for our own business. These are ways that we invest in sustainability:
- Only partnering with pesticide-free farms
- Choosing farm partners who practice regenerative farming, and work towards improving long-term soil health and climate resilience*
- Investing in seed sovereignty by working with heirloom and native seed varietals
- Growing the business at a rate that allows us to hold onto our values
- Choosing recyclable and compostable packaging materials whenever possible
