Years ago in Herat, I lived between two very different worlds.
During the week, I worked with passionate young Afghans to build democratic institutions. On the weekends, I’d return to our village, where my father was one of the first to cultivate saffron—tiny red threads of beauty and strength, growing quietly under Afghanistan’s sun.
At RUMI Saffron, we bridge the gap between Afghan saffron farmers—especially women—and European kitchens.
Our mission is to deliver the finest saffron while ensuring that those who grow it gain dignity, income, and opportunity.
Every gram of saffron we sell helps build a more just, connected, and flavorful world.
We directly partner with Afghan family farmers—ensuring fair compensation and no middlemen.
We support women across the saffron value chain, from harvesting to income generation.
Every purchase helps build a more just, inclusive, and dignified future for Afghan communities.
In the saffron fields of Herat, women don’t just pick flowers—they gather, laugh, and build strength together.
For many, this seasonal work provides more than income: it offers a sense of purpose, community, and dignity.
At RUMI Saffron, these women are not anonymous laborers.
They are the heart of our story.
We commit 10% of our net profit to empowering Afghan women—especially those who are rebuilding their lives through saffron cultivation.
It’s not just charity—it’s a way to grow hope, dignity, and independence through economic participation.
Guaranteed quality directly from our family farms in Herat.
