Clove (Eugenia Caryophyllata)

Scientific name: Eugenia caryophyllata
Family: Myrtaceae
Origin of Harvest: Madagascar

Production by small local entrepreneurs, in landscapes surrounded by large and lush forests, unfortunately no longer virgin.

The cutting and burning of forests in Madagascar has always been a problem, they always try to expand the territories to grow, rice, spices and grazing for animals.

In my small way I try to buy from old territories where even if it is inevitable but I do not want to contribute to cutting down more forest.
