This is a botanical art print of cacao pods and its leaves.
Once used as currency, the cacao pod has been around for thousands of years.
We have cacao to thank for the production and enjoyment of chocolate.

This is one of our favorite prints, featuring a whole artichoke with half shown in cross-section. Did you know that the artichoke is actually an unbloomed flower bud in the sunflower family? They make great edible ornamentals in the garden because if you don't want to harvest the buds to eat, you can enjoy their beautiful purple flowers!

A portion of the profits of this print go to support the work of DC Central Kitchen, an innovative social enterprise nonprofit, founded in 1989 by Robert Egger. Mr. Egger’s vision for addressing hunger turned the traditional “food bank” approach on its head, addressing the root causes of hunger and food insecurity using food as a tool for real change. He started by collecting food which would have been tossed out by restaurants, hotels, grocery stores and the like, turning it into healthy meals prepared by those same people who would ultimately be the receivers of the food. His “community kitchen” model spread to over 60 similar central kitchens across the US and to numerous college campuses to address food waste in dining halls and transform it into meals for the hungry.
