Certified Organic Frankincense
Albania Australia Bulgaria Dominican Republic Ghana Madagascar Namibia Nepal Papua New Guinea Rwanda Somalia South AfricaIn this dry arid environment it is difficult to imagine being able to eke out a living. However, in the very thorny boswellia bushes, the local nomadic people collect frankincense gum.
They then steam distil this gum across the border into Kenya to produce Frankincense essential oil.
We have been working with the nomadic people to help them attain organic status for their frankincense oil. They have achieved their goal and we have stock of Organically certified Frankincense oil available now!
As one of the photographs shows, donkeys are the only form of transport in this area for the collected Boswellia resin!
