Fonio is not a new grain. it's probably one of the oldest grain. Many communities have been cultivating it for 5,000 years in West Africa. This is almost the lifespan of an average baobab tree. What excites me about Fonio, is that its the crop of the future. It grows very well in sandy, poor, and acid soil. It needs very little water to thrive, and grow. It's root system fights soil erosion and prevent desertification.

INGREDIENTS:
