Picking Shea: A shortie from the Shea Forest

In this short video, women and families from Tabiasi, a community near Wa in northern Ghana, pick and eat shea fruit in the Shea Forest, the first step in turning the seed into Baraka Shea Butter, made by hand at the Konjeihi Women's Enterprise Centre.

Listen as @Alfred Akolgo, Baraka’s Country Manger describes the work they are doing and how it is part of their life and so core to their economic sustainability. Watch at the end as we catch Baraka team member @Lily Mwintoma taking pictures of us taking a picture of her! (we have a fun team – so dedicated and so easy to work with)
