What’s in a name

“Baobab? That’s a funny name”

“No, it isn’t”

The Baobab tree comes from a time when the world was one land mass — before people, before racism.

It reminds us that we are one people.

A tree that lives for eons, that stores water and grows fruit years after the last rainfall. A symbol of hope so powerful that early humans built entire civilizations around it, debated in its shadow so it’s wisdom would guide them — today we are only starting to realize its health properties.

Ageless, timeless, global but still fragile in a now changed climate.

We take our name and our inspiration from this powerful, ancient giant.

Baobab is knowledge, wisdom and unity.
