Many don’t know is that sweet potatoes traveled from Central & South America to West Africa, then back across the Atlantic during the transatlantic slave trade. By the time they reached Southern soil, our ancestors already knew how to work with them. They grew well in hot climates, stored well, & produced high yields. Roasted them in ashes, mashed them with spices, and turned them into something sustaining.

What started as survival food became celebration food; sweet potato pie on the holiday table and candied “yams” next to the greens. But they aren’t just enjoyed in the South. Sweet potatoes have a strong presence in the African Diaspora of foods.

Across the Caribbean like Jamaica, Haiti, Trinidad, and St. Croix sweet potatoes appear in dishes like sweet potato pudding, provision plates, boiled ground provisions with saltfish, and breakfast bakes. In West Africa today you’ll find sweet potatoes roasted and sold by street vendors, sweet potato stews, and fried sweet potato cubes.

Different soil. Same root.

Every time we pass a recipe down, tweak it, season it “just right,” we’re doing more than cooking.

We’re honoring hands that planted, harvested, stirred, and endured.

Our food tells the story and it’s still being written

Where are my PEANUT BUTTER LOVERS…

This one is for YOU. 🥜✨

Peanut Butter Delight is officially live on the TMA website and is everything.

Golden clusters.
Toasty oats.
Roasted peanuts.
That rich, creamy peanut butter flavor in every bite.

It’s slightly sweet, perfectly salty, and gives you that nostalgic “peanut butter straight off the spoon” feeling but grown and elevated.

This flavor has been requested more than once 👀 and I finally said okayyyyy let’s do it.

Eat it:
• over yogurt
• with sliced bananas
• by the handful straight out the bag (no judgment over here)
• or warmed up with a splash of milk

Every bag supports the bigger vision TMA Urban Farm & Garden, community classes, garden education, and rebuilding wellness on the Southside from the ground up.

Go grab yours before it sells out.
You already know how this goes. 💛

Shop now at the TMA website.
