Instead of using toxic, wasteful packaging, they use “handmade Indonesian packaging made of natural pandanus, wood bark, and banana bark- materials handmade by local communities in Java and Bali.” Pretty cool!

This company has a wonderful story: “In 2003 Cyrilla was diagnosed with Lupus. Taken care of by family and unable to work fulltime, she aided her sister, Caecilia, in developing a business that provides much needed support to the local farmers who produce high grade cashew nuts.”
Bob

I learned that cashews are farmed in Java. I’ve loved cashews for years but I never thought about where they come from.

The cashew nuts are purchased directly from the farmers and are cured with a unique and special family recipe to create delicious, freshly roasted snacks, using only natural ingredients and no preservatives.
I like that the nuts are purchased directly from the farmers instead of going to a big company and that the nuts are prepared with natural ingredients and have no preservatives.

I learned that the company is socially responsible and hopes to bring jobs and a better education to Indonesia.
