This let's talk about the benefits of organic farming and how cashew trees promote a balanced ecology.

1. Organic farms are friends of the environment because it ensures no chemicals or unnatural substances enter our water, soil, or air.

2. Cashews trees ensure a balanced ecosystem as unlike other commercial crops they grow and thrive in naturally forested areas and forests are not cleared or destroyed to give way to cashew farming.

3. Animals, insects and birds can also exist in harmony in cashew growing areas.

4. Cashew trees require less maintainence and can sustain on water from rainfall. They also protect the soil from erosion and promote soil health.

Let's make conscious choices and choose healthy and sustainable options which are good for us as well as our planet.

Did you know that the true fruit of the cashew tree is the kidney shaped part? This is usually referred to as the nut or seed. The cashew apple which is generally thought of as the fruit is actually a 'pseudo fruit' or 'accessory fruit'. The true fruit grows first and is green in colour when immature. The accessory fruit starts developing after the true fruit (as you can see in these pictures).
Immature nuts are picked in small quantities at specific stages of growth to give us the delicacy called 'Bibbo' in Konkani (plural: Bibbe) or tender cashewnuts. Extremely popular in Konkani cuisine in the Mangalore region, bibbo is used for traditional konkani delicacies like bibbe upkari, bibbe songh, bibbe talasani and more. This is not very well-known outside the konkani community, making it a very unique thing to try when in the region during season time.
