Coconut Sustainability: waste to organic planting pots

Live from the Field:
Baraka and its partner Ava Virgin Coconut take great care to bring as much sustainability, as little waste and as much impact as possible to their work. This video shows how the traditional coconut industry leaves piles of husks in the growing area, taking land away from food, making an eyesore and providing a breeding ground for snakes.

Baraka’s approach is to use the coconut husks to create organic, biodegradable planting pots. Turning waste and danger into a valuable product.
