OnlyPlants is on a mission to re-imagine the role of indigenous African crops in promoting food and nutrition security. The company uses locally-sourced ingredients to produce plant-based foods that are healthy, delicious and accessible for local consumers. These include nut & seed butters, plant-based sauces, and soon, milk made from local Bambara groundnuts. Bambara milk rivals dairy milk in protein content, outshining most oat, almond, and soy milks in nutritional value. Additionally, Bambara nuts are drought-resistant, improve soil fertility, and are cultivated mostly by women smallholder farmers. By creating market demand for underutilized local crops through innovative product development, OnlyPlants seeks to build a more sustainable food system that nourishes local communities, enhances climate resilience, and empowers smallholder farmers.
