80-year-old Moroccan woman dancing at Cooperative Marjana, Essaouira, Morocco
This was taken at the argan oil women's beauty cooperative, Marjana, about 30 minutes from Essaouira. It was a joy to be welcomed by drumming, singing and dancing before the obligatory oil extraction demonstration and sales pitch got underway. And it was sheer magic when this worker who was in her 80s got up to dance for us.
I have posted another clip where you can see this same lady at work, sorting almonds:

This time, she is at work and showing off her dexterity, sorting almonds. Although producers often now use machines for processing the oil, the traditional methods of argan and almond oil extraction are being kept alive and made accessible to tourists.

Argan Oil Essaouira Morocco - extracting the kernel!
Argan Oil is the popular does everything product, rich in nutrients and anti-ageing properties. It's delicious on a salad, the Amlou (a mix of crushed almonds, argan oil and natural honey for eating with bread) is exquisite (and considered an aphrodisiac) and the oil in its pure form purportedly does wonders for the skin and hair.
Along the highway approaching Essaouira from Marrakech there are an abundance of women's cooperatives producing pure Argan Oil.
We stopped to visit Khmissa Argan Oil and to sample some of their products. The women were in the process of extracting kernels to make the next batch of oils.
