Hibiscus ripening on a Namcovi farm in Nigeria

Our story

It started with soap.

Namcovi Naturals began more than five years ago, when our founder was selling natural skin care soaps in local shops and on Amazon and Etsy. The more he worked with natural ingredients, the clearer one thing became: modern food has drifted a long way from the farm.

So he narrowed his focus to tea and superfood plants, and made a promise that still runs every Namcovi farm: grow from non-GMO seed, tend every row by hand, keep synthetic chemicals off the land, and send each plant out exactly as nature made it.

“The food people eat should be as natural as the plants it comes from.”Our founder

Hibiscus: where it all began

Hibiscus is where we started, and it is what we know best. The deep-red calyx, the cup that holds the flower, is the part we grow for. We pick each one whole and dry it with care, so its colour and its tart, fruity flavour reach your cup exactly as the plant made them.
