From Our Soil: Banana Blossom 🌺

You know the fruit, but did you know the flower can be used too?

Banana blossom, also known as banana heart, is the flower found at the end of a banana bunch. When properly prepared, it can be used in savoury dishes such as salads, curries, soups, stir-fries, and plant-based meals.

It is a reminder that local crops often hold more value than we realize. From the fruit to the flower, agriculture continues to offer opportunities for food innovation, value-added products, and greater appreciation for what we grow.

This entry in our "From Our Soil" series highlights the possibilities found in familiar crops and the farmers who help bring them to life.

From Our Soil: Breadfruit 🌿

Breadfruit is more than a familiar local staple.

Known across Caribbean kitchens for its versatility, breadfruit also carries bigger potential for food security, agro-processing, and reducing dependence on imported staples. From roasted and boiled breadfruit to value-added products like flour and chips, this crop reminds us that local produce can serve both our plates and our future.

This entry in our From Our Soil series highlights the value of the crops grown here at home and the farmers who help keep Saint Lucia’s food system moving.

From Our Soil: Sweet Potato Leaves 🌿🍠

You know the root, but did you know the leaves can be used too?

Sweet potato leaves are a lesser-known local green that can be washed, properly cooked, and enjoyed in simple everyday dishes. From sautéed sides to soups and stews, they offer another way to make use of what our farmers grow.

When prepared safely, sweet potato leaves can be a nutritious addition to a balanced diet, offering nutrients such as beta-carotene, vitamin C, iron, calcium, and fibre.

Use leaves from edible sweet potato plants grown for food, and avoid ornamental or pesticide-treated vines.
