About

At Mana Muti, we are rooted in a deep respect for traditional medicine and the healing power of food. Our focus is simple: to restore balance, build resilience, and reconnect us with the natural world.

​

We create products that are both practical and potent — made with care using a wide variety of medicinal plants and healing compounds.
Each offering, from our nourishing foods to our plant-based remedies, is designed to support daily well-being in a way that feels grounding, enjoyable, and vibrant. We aim to awaken the palate and reintroduce the flavours of real, whole plants — the kind that grow with the seasons and carry the imprint of the land.

​

The word “Muti” comes from Southern Africa and refers to medicine — not only in a physical sense, but as a symbol of the knowledge and healing passed down through generations, through plants and through culture.

​

“Mana” carries deep personal meaning. It was the name I called my sister growing up — and over time, it came to represent more than just “sister.” It became a word full of ancestry, of feminine strength, of sisterhood in its truest sense. Mana is the energy of the women who raised us — the ones who knew how to grow, forage, and transform plants into something healing.

​

I was shaped by these women — aunties, mothers, grandmothers — who gathered in kitchens, gardens, and wild spaces. I watched and joined in as they harvested from the earth, stirred steaming pots, brewed teas, and turned what was around them into medicine and meals. Those moments, full of warmth and quiet knowing, laid the foundation for everything Mana Muti is today. Through their hands, I learned what healing really looks like — not just in what we take, but in how we live, cook, care, and pass it on.

​

Together, Mana Muti is a celebration of this legacy.
A place where the healing power of plants, the nourishment of food, and the strength of women come together — turned into meaningful, modern tools for everyday well-being.
