Today’s small harvest was enough to share with 9 additional households and still have more than enough. In a matter of two days, I’ll be harvesting just as much, if not double this quantity from literally a small handful (5) of our trees. So glad they everything isn’t ready all at once 😳 ・・・ #growninhaiti #avocados #papayas #breadfruit #coconut #mammeeapple #foodforest #sustainablefoodsystems #agroforestry #sharingiscaring #abundance #harvest #community #growth #foodsecurity #thinkglobalactlocal https://www.instagram.com/p/CCH0jRHFv8E/?igshid=wcm8b7uf41h2

What a perfectly ripe Mammee Apple should look like. Flesh evenly colored, super fragrant and seeds separated from flesh. Probably the most naturally ripened one I’ve ever tasted. #growninhaiti #mammeeapple #mamey #fruut #exotic #tropical #abundance #treeripened #reforestation #preservation #seeds #permaculture #delicious #organic #nogmos #nopestcides #noherbicides

Sharing some delicious Mamee Apple with koko and zozo. Have to make sure to get our daily vitamins 💪🏽🦜 Rich in vitamin C and carbohydrates. Great morning boost. The tree is native to northern South America and the Antilles. It is not well known in Africa or in tropical Asia. I came to find out that various parts of the tree, especially the seeds, have insecticidal properties. The pulverized seeds have been used in traditional Central and South America to treat parasitic skin diseases and also to get rid of lice and chiggers on humans and domestic animals. ・・・ #growninhaiti #mammeeapple #hispaniolanparakeet #olivethroatedparakeet #wildlife #freeflight #vitamins #breakfast #native #haiti #ayiti #fauna #fruit #exotic #exoticfruit #tropical #tropicalfruit #organic #nogmos #nopesticides #noherbicides #snack #foodforest #agroforestry https://www.instagram.com/p/BynVLhCFNyy/?igshid=1go8im6tvfl2a

Close up of the Mammee Apple flowers. So small and delicate in comparison to the large fruits they make. #growninhaitii #mammeeapple #mamey #haiti #ayiti #bloom #flower #fruit #tree #reforestation #preservation #plantedfromseed #organic #nogmos #nopesticides #noherbicides
