Seleno Health believes it is our responsibility as consumers, suppliers, and retailers to protect the incredible heritage, culture, and history of Maca and Cacao in Peru and create an ethical and sustainable way to produce products that benefit all involved.
They have a direct partnership with their farmers and community in Peru and are committed to protecting them from exploitation, which can be prominent in many areas of the industry. The farms carry out the total production of their final products, meaning all profits are shared back with them, resulting in fair payment for premium farm-to-table products, a better-than-living wage, and eliminating the middleman.
They also donate a percentage of their profits to a development fund to improve the lives of those who make their products. They believe that if they benefit from the rich agricultural resources supplied by their farmers, then so should they.
When you buy food, do your research, buy ethically, and support companies that give back. Your purchase is like a vote; vote wisely for the people trying to preserve and protect, not profit.
In the community that grows the Maca for their products, they are currently working on these projects:
• Funding improvements to the conditions at the San Jose de Quero school
• Improving their farmer’s house in terms of infrastructure, consumables, heating, water, internet, and sanitation.
• They sponsor 14 children from the community and pay for their annual schooling needs.
• They funded the building of accommodations to house eco-tourists, allowing the community to generate a long-term sustainable income in addition to their current trade.
• They are working to create cultural and professional development programs for their farmers, their families, and the local school children; this will improve their levels of education and professional experience.
They also support the Mishollo Agrarian Community in Tocache, Peru, by aiding the liberation from drug cartels and criminal oppression and reconnecting them with their ancestral roots of Cacao cultivation. For over 30 years, farmers of Cacao in Peru have been pulled into an illegal drug trade by cartels needing coca plants to produce cocaine for export into Western markets. This has left Indigenous farmers and their communities devastated and often faced with bloodshed and violence to comply, plus instilling a disconnect and loss of the traditions, wisdom, and connection with Cacao as a master plant and medicine.
In 2012, the Rescue Cacao Program was developed to bring change to the industry. Their contribution helps purchase farming equipment so they can produce organic Cacao for export. By choosing their Cacao, you encourage them to reconnect with their ancestral roots of Cacao cultivation and help preserve the culture and history of Cacao in Peru.
