ODDBOX x UNROOTED: Orange, Carrot & Baobab Smoothie
Your two favourite sustainable brands have joined forces!
ODDBOX - well know fruit & veg rescuers - have created the world's most sustainable smoothie (probably) by blending up wonky oranges and carrots with our wild-harvested baobab.
Baobab fruit grows in the wild, on trees that cannot be commercially farmed, and once ripe, the fruit drops to the ground, where they are collected by hand. Harvesting baobab supports communities and provides jobs in rural regions. Baobab trees thrive without irrigation, fertilisers and are guardians against deforestation. Their fruits grow in harmony with nature, not against it, supporting diversity as a keystone species and partnering with ODDBOX's rescued fruit means no fruit is wasted and all the tastes and nutrients are enjoyed!
