THE MEANING

Woodsmoke is the love, longing, and pull that Africa has on our hearts. Woodsmoke is the smell of Africa just before a heavy rain, the never ending sunsets, and the wildness and freedom that only Africa can offer. Woodsmoke lives in us and will keep pulling us back to Africa.

THE MISSION

To bring the Woodsmoke of Africa to the West through our products, service, and people – while helping to create sustainability in Africa through education.

THE PROMISE

In Africa access to education is not as widely enjoyed as in the US, and decent schooling is only available to a select few. At Woodsmoke, we’ve established an educational trust to allow more African children the opportunity of learning, and 5 percent of all purchases will go towards this trust.
