How I Learned About The Moringa Tree
I first heard of the Moringa Tree this past spring when I was looking for alternatives to livestock feed.
I wanted something that was living, full of nutrients and non-GMO.
During my research, I learned that the leaves of this tree were good for making tea for us and the leaves contained huge amounts of vitamins, potassium, protein and calcium.
I was intrigued with this plant and decided I wanted to grow some both for my livestock, especially my rabbits and myself.
Moringa Tea Recipe
Moringa Tree is a very fast growing tropical tree and here in Indiana I keep it in a pot in the greenhouse during the winter months.
I received three roots from my friend Karen at Blue Yonder Urban Farms who, at the time, grew and sold both Moringa roots and the seeds in her shop.

One way many people choose to use it is as a coffee substitute.
Moringa Trees are a great addition to your self-sufficient homestead because they have many uses.
How To Make Moringa Coffee
If you're interested in making Moringa coffee or even a Moringa latte, you can do so by using moringa powder.
Place the powder along with coconut milk and a sweetener of your choice into a blender.
This will help to make it have a mixed and bubbly look.
You can then heat it on the stove slowly until it's warm and pour it into your favorite mug.
While it does taste different than regular coffee, it is a great coffee substitute!
Can Rabbits Eat Moringa Leaves?

While Moringa leaves shouldn't be their main source of food, feeding rabbits moringa leaves can be a good way to help with weight, and provide nutrients to their daily diets.
