Mango Magic for Mind & Body

Wellness isn’t about fads; it’s about choosing simple, real foods that truly nourish. And the Mango Rosa, our heirloom Nicaraguan variety, is as real as it gets.

Grown in nutrient-rich volcanic soil and nurtured through regenerative organic farming, this mango is harvested at peak ripeness and solar-dried to lock in its golden color, superior bold flavor, and nutrient density. No additives, no added sugar, no “natural flavors”, just pure mango 🥭🥭🥭

💛 The Wellness Boosts You’ll Love:

Mood & Stress: Mango is rich in flavonoids like quercetin & catechins, shown to support calmness, reduce stress, and improve focus.

Gut Health: With natural fiber and phenolic acids, it helps your microbiome thrive, vital for digestion and the brain–gut connection.

Skin & Longevity: Bursting with beta-carotene & vitamin A, it protects skin, supports vision, and promotes healthy aging.

Immunity & Energy: A natural source of vitamin C and folate — two nutrients many people are lacking in their daily diet.

🥭 Did you know? Around 25% of the world’s population is at risk of folate deficiency, and nearly 1 in 10 women of childbearing age in the US are deficient. Just one serving of mango can help fill that gap, naturally. Enjoy our Regenerative Organic Certified®️ straight from the bag. On top of oatmeal, mixed into a trail mix, or paired with cheese for an elevated snack. However you enjoy it, Mango Rosa is your everyday tropical wellness ritual.

What If Your Fruit Could Help Heal the Planet? 🌍 🌱

That’s the magic of regenerative farming: a method that doesn’t just grow food, it restores ecosystems, enriches soil, and brings life back to the land. And the best part? You can taste the difference 😋

Unlike conventional farming which relies on chemical inputs, strips the soil, and leaves behind environmental damage, regenerative agriculture works with nature. It improves soil health, increases biodiversity, pulls carbon from the atmosphere, and produces more flavorful, nutrient-dense fruit. At Sol Simple, all of our fruits are grown by smallholder farmers who are healing their land with every harvest. And yes, you can taste the difference. When food is grown in living, nutrient-rich soil, it holds more delicious flavor, more vitality, and more nourishment. Our Regenerative Organic Certified®️ solar-dried mango, banana, pineapple, and Organic Certified®️ dragon fruit are bursting with natural sweetness and superior nutrients that your body recognizes and thrives on.

This is fruit the way nature intended: vibrant, clean, and full of life.

The future of food starts with your choices. Snack regeneratively. Snack with Sol Simple.

Empowered Women Grow Stronger Communities 💛🌱

This Women’s Equality Day, we celebrate the hardworking women behind Sol Simple, from smallholder farmers and factory team members to women in management, who are transforming food systems and strengthening their communities.

At Sol Simple, promoting gender equity is core to our mission. Nearly half of our plant workers are women, and over a quarter of our smallholder farmers are female landowners, many of whom are the sole providers for their families. We invest in women with fair pay, agricultural training, financial literacy workshops, and long-term partnerships that help build confidence, independence, and generational opportunity.

When you choose Sol Simple, you’re not just supporting sustainable farming, you’re helping women rise.

From One Hectare to a Future Full of Hope 💛

Meet Santos Maria Sanchez, a mother of four and one of our partnering dragon fruit farmers in Nicaragua. After the loss of her husband, she took over her family’s one-hectare farm with no formal training, limited income, and little support. Like many rural women, Maria faced enormous barriers, from a lack of agricultural education to the daily challenge of making her farm profitable enough to feed her family.

Since partnering with Sol Simple in 2016, Maria has received ongoing support from our team, including regenerative training, access to organic inputs, financial literacy education, and secure contracts that gave her visibility into her income. With this foundation, she not only revitalized her dragon fruit farm, she also introduced pineapple crops to diversify income during the off-season.

Her improved cash flow empowered her to send all four of her children to college, a milestone that once felt out of reach. This is what happens when you support women in agriculture. This is the power behind every piece of Sol Simple fruit.
