Quinoa (keen’-wah) is originated from the Andean region of South America. For thousands of years, it is considered by the Incas as the “Mother of All Grains”

This Organic Quinoa is originally cultivated at the peaks of the Andes in an ideal environment, using high quality seeds, clear water and a superior production method to yield a highly nutritious and great tasting grain that made it so popular in the first place. Quinoa has been compared to dried whole milk by the Food And Agricultural Organisation (FAO) of the United Nations and has been selected by NASA as a basic food for astronauts during space missions.
