All of our whole food products are grown in Afghanistan, with stable water supplies and multi-generational family farms and village cooperatives.
Our produce is grown on traditional Afghan family farms. Small scale production means that the products grown pass down through generations as true heirloom crops.
Historically available only to the world’s most resourceful foragers, Ziba now brings you direct-from-origin white mulberries, pistachios and licorice; whose size, flavour or appearance have not been modified in any way.
Naturally rich in nutrients but relatively low in calories, Ziba products are loaded with Fiber, Vitamins and minerals, with no added ingredients other than pure Afghan salt in our roasted nuts.
Ziba’s products are grown without the use of chemical pesticides and contain no additives or preservatives of any kind, including sulfites. Afghan dried fruit and nuts don’t need to cut corners to be world-class.
“I always heard that the best dried fruits were coming from the beautiful land of Afghanistan and now I’m pleased to introduce them to our customers at Daniel in New York.”
“Mekelburg’s is a woman owned and mainly woman operated business. Naturally we were drawn to Ziba because of its connection to empowering women in Afghanistan. Mekelburg’s proudly displays Ziba on our shelves and uses it in items on our menu!”
