How a South African village turned an alien tree into superfood coffee

MannaBrew Stand: 1316
An innovative initiative has transformed the invasive Prosopis tree into a superfood coffee in a South African village. The Prosopis, characterized by its droopy, thorn-covered branches, was introduced to South Africa in the late 1800s and has since become a problematic invasive species. Local entrepreneur Coetzee saw potential in this alien tree and developed a method to process its pods into a nutritious coffee alternative. This endeavor provides a unique beverage rich in nutrients and offers a sustainable solution to managing the invasive species, benefiting both the environment and the local economy.
