From the Heart of the Solomon Islands. On the fertile volcanic lowlands of Guadalcanal Island, indigenous farmers nurture cacao in harmony with coconut trees, root vegetables, and native hardwood. These biodiverse micro-farms are cultivated without electricity and sun-dried under tropical skies, ensuring a sustainable approach that respects both land and tradition.

A Partnership with Purpose

We work with Cathliro Commodities Development Ltd a local partner creating economic opportunities for indigenous farmers while addressing deforestation through agroforestry projects. With women making up over 70% of the farming force, this cacao is more than a product — it’s a movement for resilience, biodiversity, and community empowerment.
