Meet the northern Ghanaian cooperative whose hand-whipped butter fills our jars — and what fair pricing changed.
Shea is picked, cracked, roasted, milled and whipped almost entirely by women. The work is slow and physical, and for decades it paid very little because the value was captured far downstream.
Our partner cooperative sells to us directly and prices per season rather than per shipment. That single change has funded a shared grinding mill and school fees for more than forty children.
When you buy unrefined shea, you are buying a supply chain that still has hands in it.
