A nutritious blend of sorghum, pumpkin and amaranth with 5–8% protein and 15–20% dietary fibre, low in fat and high in unsaturated fatty acids.
Ustawi whole meal flour blends sorghum, pumpkin and amaranth into one nutrient-dense flour. It delivers 5–8% protein and 15–20% dietary fibre, is low in total fat and predominantly unsaturated. Use it for porridge, uji, pancakes, cakes and traditional Kenyan meals.
Sorghum, pumpkin and amaranth each bring something different: sorghum is a drought-tolerant cereal, pumpkin adds colour and micronutrients, and amaranth is valued for its protein and mineral content. Combined into one flour they give an everyday porridge considerably more protein and fibre than refined maize flour, at a lower cost than many imported alternatives. The blend is 5–8% protein and 15–20% dietary fibre, and it is low in fat, mainly unsaturated.
A blend of sorghum, pumpkin and amaranth, three crops long grown in Kenya and well adapted to drier conditions. We source them from smallholder farmers in Makueni County and mill locally.

No. Our flours are precooked, so they are ready in about two minutes. Mix with hot or cold water or milk and stir — there is no need to boil them first. They also work well in pancakes, chapati, cakes and porridge if you prefer to cook with them.
Our sweet potato flour is naturally gluten free, and the whole meal flour is based on sorghum, pumpkin and amaranth rather than wheat. If you have coeliac disease or a severe allergy, always check the pack label for the specific product before use.
Our products are not certified organic, so we describe them as natural rather than organic. They are made from natural ingredients with no artificial preservatives, added flavours or colours.
In Makueni County, Kenya. We buy from smallholder farmers in the county — over 500 of them — and mill locally, which keeps the supply chain short and helps reduce post-harvest waste.
Keep flours sealed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and reseal the pack after opening. Store honey at room temperature; there is no need to refrigerate it. If honey crystallises, that is normal for raw unprocessed honey — stand the jar in warm water to loosen it again.
Yes. Our porridge flours are widely used for family breakfasts and for young children. The biofortified sweet potato flour is milled from Vitamin A-rich orange-fleshed sweet potatoes, and Vitamin A is a nutrient of particular importance for growing children.
