What are soap nuts?
Soap nuts, also known as Soap Berries, have been used for thousands of years as a natural washing detergent. They grow on trees of the Sapindus Genus and are commonly used and harvested in India and Nepal. It is the berry’s natural source of Saponin which makes it a truly natural soap which cleans and freshens your clothes. Check out this video for an example of what the harvesting process looks like (video).
