KyT Food Products

KyT produces a wide range of natural food products, reflecting the diversity of the natural environment of the Tswapong Hills. Members have all received training in hygiene, food production and quality standards. Further, all products are quality checked by the Trust's staff, both in the village and at the Lerala factory. The KyT label is your assurance of a quality natural product.

Morula Jelly

The morula fruit is exceptionally high in vitamin C content. KyT members produce and bottle the jelly in the local villages before supplying it to the Trust. The jelly captures the delicious taste of morula and as well as using it like a jam, it is an excellent accompaniment to game meat. Available in 250ml jars.

Lerotse Jam

Another delicious product, made from the wild growing lerotse melon, the jam carries a hint of ginger. Available in 250ml jars.

Morogo

An exceptionally popular product in Botswana, this vegetable is made from dried bean leaves which are harvested locally. The label contains recipe suggestions to get the best from the product. Available in 250g and 500g packs.

Mosata

Tswapong is one of only two known locations where mosata grows. It is a delicious meat substitute which knocks the spots off soya meat. We are not currently growing enough to meet the all year round demand but we are working on it! Available in 330g and 660g packs.

Phane

In December and April, Tswapong is swarming with the caterpillars from the eggs of the mophane moth. Within a couple of weeks, they eat the leaves from every mophane tree in the area. Our members then harvest the caterpillars which form a staple part of the diet for millions of people in Southern Africa. Phane is very nutritious and can be eaten cold as a snack or cooked in a sauce for meals. Members have received extensive training to ensure that KyT phane is among the highest quality phane available in Southern Africa. Available in 375g and 750g packs.
