Moringa is one of the hottest new superfoods, but what is it and how can it benefit your health?

Moringa oleifera is a tree from northern India that has edible leaves, pods, seeds and flowers and for centuries, it has been considered a super-food around the world. Moringa has many nutritional and medicinal properties. Morgina is high in potassium, vitamin C and antioxidant, among other important vitamins and minerals. Plus, it can be easily grown here in Central Florida.

In this program, Melissa Golterman of Momma G Farms will explain the health benefits of moringa and teach you everything you need to know to nurture and harvest your own moringa leaves. In addition to all the tips and tricks you’ll learn, your program fee also includes a moringa seedling to take home with you.

This program is presented by Melissa Goltermann and is hosted by the Winter Park Health Foundation.

About the Presenter:  

Melissa Goltermann started her healing journey after 10 years of being on pain management due to a serious car accident. She found the medication was only masking her symptoms and she searched for ways to heal her body. Coming off the medication was not easy, and her body is still healing. Moringa was the first thing she used to help in her healing journey. Her mission is to educate others on how plants can be a part of a healthy healing diet. She offers free classes to children and adults at her not-for-profit food forest farm Momma G Farms, located in Eustis, Florida. She has been growing and using Moringa for over 10 years.
