Become Ambassador of the Miracle Tree!

Combat climate change, desertification, malnutrition, food shortages and help families and communities getting purified water with the Moringa Tree.

It's Free to perform a Miracle!

A Miracle?? Yes a Miracle, because not even god could plant trees with a click. Back then there was no internet :-)

Join The Miracle Campaign!

Gives us the possibility to finance the Moringa seeds that we send to schools, orphanages, etc. in 3rd world countries.

Moringa seeds

Maybe the best present?

Miracle Campaing Mission: We distribute Moringa seeds at random around the world.

Example: We google for a address school in Ethiopia and send them the Moringa seeds with instructions to distribute the seeds among the kids. Then the Kids will bring the seeds to their families to plant it in their backyard.

You can do it too!

...or you can wait that it falls from the sky!

Moringa Oleifera Seeds

Moringa seeds are as important as the Moringa tree itself. Germinate a seed, and it will produce a Moringa tree that grows rapidly and continues to shower you with nutrients for years to come.

Find Moringa Seeds

The best place to get Moringa seeds is as close as possible to where they will be grown. This will make sure that the seeds will be most resilient to the local climate and conditions. If Moringa grows in your region, you can just collect seeds from those Moringa trees. Look for pods that are dry and have turned brown. Harvest the seeds before the pods split open and fall to the ground.

Moringa seeds are produced annually in the tropical and sub tropical countries. Like the rest of the moringa plant, the seeds are highly valued, as they give us the incredibly nutritious Moringa tree leaves and pods.

The seeds come with their very own wings to ensure the wind carries them to fertile ground far away from the parent plant. When firmly rooted, the seeds produce a bountiful crop of one of the world’s most healthy plants.

Moringa Seeds can be described as follow.

Moringa seeds are large and circular-shaped, and grow inside the lengthy pods of the Moringa oleifera tree. The pods are hard and can reach around or more then 1 foot in length. Every individual Moringa pod can produce more then 10 Moringa seeds.

Moringa oleifera seeds have a unique and enjoyable appearance. They have sets of thin flaps extending from the main kernel. These flaps serve as wings to carry the seeds away from the mother Moringa tree. With the help of the wind, the seeds move across the ground until they find a resting place to germinate and become a tree.

The Moringa oleifera leaves grow very fast but the seed pods do not grow back every few months lik ethe leaves can do. Moringa trees can make seed pods on on etime per year, just like many other plants. Beeing a healing plant. it worths to wait a little for the trees to make theis seed pods.

Moringa oleifera trees give a huge volume of seed pods during their reproduction months. An normal tree of arount five meters in height can produce thousands of seed pods, yielding countless seeds each year and every year the morinag tree is alive.

Uses for Moringa Seeds

Fresh Moringa seeds are normaly quite soft and yield with big pressure. When Moringa seeds dry out, they harden until they look like a dried bean or pea.

When the Moringa seeds are used for oil extraction, the seeds are harvested and processed straight away. The fresh, soft seeds are broken into pieces and heated with water, and then they are pressed for oil. Much research is being done in this field to get a high amount oil out of the seeds. Still a long road to go to find the right methode for moringa oil pressing.

Moringa seeds can also be harvested for other proposes beside oil. The moringa seeds could be used as food, to purify water or in cultivating further Moringa crops. Moringa seeds are a very welcome in many cultures as a nutritious food. The moringa seeds are full of nutrients, making them as popular as Moringa leaves in lots of meals and recipes.

Growing Moringa Seeds

The Moringa plant is getting discovered by more and more people. Every day there are new companies and business dealing in moringa. The offering of moringa seeds and moringa powder on the internet went from zero to 1000 at the spead of light, the last 2 years. Seeds of the Moringa oleifera tree are cheaply available online. Please read our instructions on where and how to plant moringa seeds before you order any seeds because maybe the environment or weather where you live, is not suitable for growing moringa or germinating the seeds. A tropical or sub tropical environment is the ideal but you could still grow the Moringa plant indoors, greenhouse or personal home, when you take good care of the seed planting and growing process. Moringa seeds germinate well in a room temperature environment. The seeds will grow into plants after around 2 weeks in the ground. Moringa seeds likes it warm and lots of light. You need to take care that you dont over water the seeds because they could rot.

One way to do it is to soak the seeds in water for around twenty four hours. By doing this you will let the seeds to get moisture that the seeds require for sprouting. After the twentyfour hour soaking periude, you can remove the seeds and place them in the ground. One cm deep is good enough. Remember to give the seeds some water but not too much, otherwise the seed may rotten. Check the moringa seeds come out of the ground around 2 weeks later. Some seeds will never grow. But the other time i plant 5 seeds and i got six little moringas. Talking about green fingers... or was that a miracle?

Although Moringa can stand freezing temperatures, a good rule to follow for growing Moringa oleifera is keeping the temperatures above 20 Celcius.

Harvesting Your Plant

Moringa is such a fast grower, that means you can harvest the Moringa plant of its leaves every couple of months. The leaves will grow back again with all the same nutrients as the first time and without damaging the tree. The Moringa tree can grow several meters in its first year after germinating from seed.

Cleaning water with moringa seeds

The seed cake which remains after the oil has been extracted has proved to be a very effective coagulant for purifying water. The seeds powder helps remove sediment and bacteria, leaving the water clean and alomost ready to drink.

Water will require different amounts of Moringa oleifera seeds powder to purify it, depending on the impurities present. Around 50-150 mg of ground seeds treat one litre of water: as a rule of thumb, powder from one seed will be sufficient for one litre of very turbid or two litres of slightly turbid water. Experimenting with small amounts of water in a jar will help you work out the correct amount of powder and the optimal stirring times.

You may want to compare the water quality achieved with Moringa oleifera seeds to that achieved with other methods (see Mitchell et al., 2008, for an example of a different water purification method), and run a com-petition for the most efficient method of water purification.

In certain rural areas of Sudan, women already use Moringa oleifera to purify water: when collecting water from the River Nile, they place the powdered seeds in a small cloth bag with a thread attached. This is then swirled around in the bucket of turbid water, until the fine particles and bacteria clump together with Moringa oleifera seeds powder, sinking and settling to the bottom. For drinking water though, the water needs to be purified further by boiling, filtering through sand or placing it in direct sunlight in a clearbottle for a couple of hours (solarising; see Folkard et al., 1999).
