BioChar Kenya is made from eco-friendly chips purchased from carefully selected urban charcoal vendors in Nairobi. The ‘char dust’ has been magnetically cleaned and double sieved through a 3mm mesh. This provides an optimal particle size, making it the ideal application for gardens. Its use is recognized as an efficient form of carbon sequestration and provides a circular method to help clean up Nairobi’s charcoal waste.
Manufactured by the talented team at Chardust Ltd, this venture gives a higher quality and longer lasting value to Kenya’s waste charcoal products.
Sold in two formats:
Pure Biochar: Used to absorb moisture in compost bins or vermiculture, or to reduce odors in cat litter and livestock bedding. Alternatively, you can activate the biochar before adding to your grass or soil.
50/50 Blend: This ready-to-use biochar and compost blend is incredibly beneficial for house plants, potting soil, vegetable gardens and lawns.

Smoking Wood Chips
Cut into an easy to use format, these sticks are made from seasonal prunings from fruit trees at Mlango Organic Farm, or our very own African Olive from the Cookswell Forest. 4 to 5 pieces will smoke for about an hour, and there is no need to soak prior to using.
How to use:
Place a small handful of Cookswell Smoking Wood in the removeable tray that catches the ashes below the liner. When hot coals fall through the holes, they will slowly smolder the wood to produce high-quality smoke for meats, veggies and more! Alternatively and for more smoke production, place a few sticks directly onto the coals in the oven, and cover with a bit of ash.
Remember to keep your oven clean, as the smoke buildup from each use will impart a smoky flavor to the other dishes that you prepare.
Each bag is approximately 500gms in weight
