Organic Maca from the Andean regions of Huanuco and
Junin, Peru. Grown by local farmers and small farming cooperatives.
Embrace wellness with OrganicCrops' premium organic Maca powder, made from white, red, or black Maca roots. Grown in the high-altitude regions of Huanuco and Junin, Peru, our Maca is a testament to tradition and purity.
Nurtured by the crisp air and rich soil of the central Andes, our Maca grows at an altitude of 4000 meters above sea level in Huanuco and Junin, Peru. With respect for tradition, our local farmers cultivate and harvest the Maca root. The harvested roots are sun-dried, packaged, and transported to Lima, where they undergo further processing into powder, flakes, or concentrate.
Our commitment to fair trade practices ensures that the farmers involved in the cultivation of our Maca receive a good living wage. More than just a fair pay, OrganicCrops is dedicated to empowering local farmers to preserve their environment through traditional farming and cultivation techniques. This sustainable approach helps protect the rich agricultural heritage of Peru and the natural balance of its landscapes.
