Good land, shared well

Bafinfeh farms 416 acres of rolling land around Semabu Village in Eastern Sierra Leone. Cashew is our main crop. Between the trees we grow cassava, rice, pepper, pineapple, cacao and groundnuts.

We farm organically and hire from the community, with a deliberate place for women, young people and people with disabilities. Today that means 20 permanent jobs and 101 seasonal ones.

From clearing to drying

Cashew trees fruit once a year. This is the work that brings each crop in.

  1. A footpath through tall grass between young cashew trees

    1 Brushing

    Undergrowth between the rows is cut back so the trees get light and air.

  2. Aerial view of cashew trees, each with cleared ground around it, and two workers walking between them

    2 Ring clearing

    A bare circle is cleared under each tree, so fallen nuts are easy to find.

  3. Two young green cashews on the branch, the nut hanging beneath each apple

    3 Fruiting

    Each cashew apple carries a single nut, growing at its tip.

  4. A raw cashew nut cut in half, showing the pale kernel inside the shell

    4 Harvest

    Ripe cashews fall and are gathered by hand. Inside each shell is one kernel.

  5. Raw cashew nuts spread out to dry on a blue tarp

    5 Drying

    The nuts dry in the sun on tarps for a few days, then go into sacks for buyers.

“Our pledge: to sustain, include and enrich the earth and its people for generations to come.”

We want women, young people and people with disabilities to have real roles in shaping a shared, prosperous future here.
