The average mesquite pod has 25 seeds which are extracted and cooked, milled for its flour, and even used to make beer!

There are 40+ species of mesquite tree. Our project will help Suchilquitongo utilize species in their region that haven't been harvested before.

There are 7 different species of mesquite trees native to Texas and northern Mexico!

Mesquite is packed with nutrients! Ground pods are between 11-17% protein!

The population of Oaxaca is approximately 300,000 people.

Santiago Suchilquitongo is 1 of 570 municipalities in Oaxaca, and we are looking forward to visiting and working with the community on our project!

Miracle plant or superfood? Mesquite pods are full of nutrients like protein, calcium, iron, and zinc!

This generous donation will help our project exceed expectations and create economic independence within our partnering community!

Your contribution will cover the cost of the entire project!
