Starting off Womens month where we celebrate the success of women, Beyond the Itinerary this week is Maboang Matlou, CEO of Lefakong Moringa and Michele Paulus, GM of Afriscientific. The conversation is all about the health benefits of the Moringa as well as the journey of Maboang to be one of the biggest Moringa farmers in SA as well as being Organic certified. Michele and her team supply Lefakong with the machinery that makes it all happen as well as making it possible for small farmers to start their own farms and reseller packs allow town dwellers to have their own business through education and workshops.

Her position is to after those giant machines underground, proving that even with beautifully manicured nails, you can get the job done!
