No, these are not a strange breed of four legged monkey. The animals in this picture are goats in Southern Morocco feeding on the fruit of an Argan tree. I first became interested in this tree when I was introduced to the oil that is made from the Argan nut. It is a highly valued oil with similar properties to
Olive oil. In Morocco the oil is extracted by hand which makes it a bit expensive and difficult to come by.
Wow, I have never seen anything like this!
ReplyDeleteThis argan oil that comes from the pit of the fruit is often used in cosmetics or used directly on the skin. Argan oil is also used cuisine -similar to olive oil. The skin benefits cosmetically are amazing -often used to balance intense weather affects on the skin like heat or winter cold weather. Argan oil moisturizes, nourishes, and protects your skin. In traditional medicine it is used to reduce scars from acne or chicken pox. ArganBody.com carries organic 100% argan oil and they have other argan oil products like soaps, lotions and creams.
