Moringa the super food.
Moringa oleifera commonly called Moringa is one plant you need to research and get familiar with. It is a fast growing plant and is drought resistant. Once you get it growing it is very easy to care for and takes very little maintenance. Moringa is a plant that is packed with minerals and vitamins hence the nick name SUPER FOOD but it also have many uses such as water purification.
In many countries Moringa is used to combat malnutrition especially for infants. The entire tree from the roots to the leaves and bark are also used in many medicines.
Below I have a few photos of my Moringa tree.

Moringa's the sh*t, i drink it as a tea to replace coffee sometimes... i've never seen the plant though. How do you harvest it?
Sometimes I just eat the leaves fresh off the tree by themselves or in a salad. To preserve I dry the leaves out and turn it into a powder. Thanks for stopping by and following!
