Papayas are a seriously sustainable crop!

Papayas grow easily and quickly in the right climate. From seed to fruit it can take as little as 6 months!

We planted these papaya trees on the organic farm in North lombok, Indonesia last August and already there is thick juicy fruits.

Papayas are a miracle fruit, because it is high in papain which has antibiotic properties. You can notice the positive effects on the digestion after eating this fruit almost immediately.

Papain can be extracted and used in medicine
'as a digestive aid and for treating parasitic worms, inflammation of the throat and pharynx, shingles (herpes zoster) symptoms, ongoing diarrhea, hay fever, runny nose, and a skin condition called psoriasis. Papain is also used along with conventional treatments for tumors.'
