How Argan Oil is Made in Morocco

http://www.TravelsWithSheila.com Ten percent of the argan oil production in the world comes from countries such as Algeria, Mexico, Israel and is endemic to Morocco. If you've never heard of Argan Oil before, the oil is produced from the kernels of the Argan Tree and used for nutritive, cosmetic and medicinal properties. My own beauty salon uses a very expensive Argan Oil product called "Moroccan Oil" for hair. This Argan Oil Cooperative is run by women and the Explore group stopped for a demonstration. Even I took a seat and tried my hand at smooshing the pulp and grinding the oil.
