While cacao pollination and health rely on tiny insects called biting midges, sometimes other insects are more of a bother than a benefit. They bore into cacao pods making these strange looking lines.... the beauty and struggle of Organic Cacao Plantations is a balance, like most all things in life and nature. That's why we source our cacao beans and nibs from @haciendacacaoterajesusmaria, growers and farmers that truly and intentionally care for their cacao, chocolate and environment 🌱🍫 #rainforest to the #city, #KnowYourGrower . . . . . #ecology #cacao #chocolate #organic #vegan #mothernature #environment #foodie #foodporn #cacaopod #beantobar #farmers #mexico #knowyourgrowers #farming #insects #balance #singleorigin #treetobar #organiccacao #losangeles #culvercity (at Comalcalco, Tabasco) https://www.instagram.com/p/By__eJ6B_rN/?igshid=nt0dyatijz99
