We at Oro Verde SA CV “We are aligned with a farmer cooperative of dedicated Nopal (Opuntia ficus- indica) Cactus growers. Our government protected Biosphere growing fields lay within the cradle of Nopal's global origins and the spiritual birthplace of the Opuntia species. This pristine ancient land is graced with rich volcanic soils, at such high altitudes (7,000 ft.) that the cloud mist provides much of the Nopal plant's moisture throughout the four seasons. Our sustainable Natural process cultivation techniques, have led to maintaining the productivity of our regions Nopal for decades, while consistently
producing unparalleled quality in our harvests year after year.

Recent anthropological studies on the Nopal cactus have found to have nourished humans up to 12,000 years ago. Ancient cultures in this region valued Nopal as a divine food, while Ethno-botanical records document internal and external body applications of Nopal for a variety of problems. Traditional uses of this succulent cactus continue throughout modern Mexico, Central and South America. The high levels of soluble and insoluble fibers contribute to overall satiety.

Nopal as a food or ingredient therefore is a natural choice for a healthy lifestyle.”
