For 5 years, I created the Box nature to promote local agricultural products and reintroduce them on the tables of Martinican people. With COVID19, we have seen an increase in the demand for natural boxes and this demand is not weakening. It is to respond with more resources and efficiency to our customers that we invite you to support the box nature. Together, let's successfully take this new step!

Since 2014, the company "LE TRAY CARAIBE", a social and solidarity economy company, has been committed to promoting local agricultural production in order to encourage Martinicans to eat products from healthy agriculture without herbicides or chemical pesticide.
The Box Nature service relies primarily on a network of farmers who implement healthy cultivation techniques in their geographical area to provide quality products. A soil and a climate adapted to the type of plantation, facilitates the growth of crops by limiting the use of treatments.
Since 2019, the LE JARDIN DE ST-ANGE farm has been helping us, using permaculture principles, we are planting varieties that are difficult to find with partner farmers: green beans, okra, turmeric, ginger, redcurrants, corn, certain varieties of cabbage, radishes, giraumons, ... aromatic herbs, an orchard, ... all this implemented on the model of permaculture.
Our priority is to eat healthy, local seasonal fruits and vegetables, but also to support the agricultural sector of our island made up of small farmers keen to provide quality products.
Before COVID19, 120 to 150 Martinique households received the nature box every week either at our relay points or at their place of work. Since the pandemic, during and after containment, we are experiencing an increase in our average number of baskets to be delivered per week with weekly peaks of 500 baskets.
First of all, our company is proud to see the strengthening of collective awareness in Martinique that committed, healthy and cultivated agriculture with respect for the health of consumers has its place on the plates of Martinicans.
Then, this continuous increase in demand forces us, too, to make adjustments in order to keep the same quality of our products, our delivery times and our logistics.
It was following the encouragement of our customers and partners that we decided that 6 years was an opportunity to show you our confidence and to launch our fundraising campaign. your support as a strong message from a united Martinique united around our fight for healthy agriculture, respectful of your health and our nature.
The funds collected will notably make it possible to create one to two jobs as logistics and delivery assistants; to speed up the processing of growing demand. Indeed, you should know that we offer several types of nature boxes. And, we are committed to treating each request with the utmost care. This is the price to pay to maintain the loyalty of our customers. We therefore plan to set up systems for tracing our customers' requests.
Our commitment is to meet the demand of our customers while knowing our customers and to keep this close bond which is so important for our seniors. This intergenerational social bond helps to fight against their isolation.
Nature boxes are delivered in accordance with strict health protocols. In addition, when it comes to vegetables and fruits, each partner farmer presents his soil analyzes at the start of our collaboration. We can thus guarantee that all chlordecone risk products such as roots and ground-based fruits such as watermelons, melons, giraumons, cucumbers are grown on non-chlordecone soils. The majority practice an agriculture which bans the use of herbicides, pesticides and chemical fertilizers. Others use natural treatments based on plant manure and other treatments authorized in organic farming, because it is important to know that organic also has its range of products labeled ECOCERT.
I am Elisabeth ABSALON, mother of 3 children, entrepreneur, founder of the company LE TRAY CARAIBE which markets the nature box in particular.
After my schooling at Schoelcher high school, I went to study in France.
Graduated from the Institut Supérieur du Commerce de Paris, I have had many professional experiences including
in the area of financial management, software and digital as well as marketing and communication.
The call of Martinique, of my roots, was felt.
A few years later, it is the call of the land and the enhancement of our agricultural wealth that punctuates my professional life.
So I created the company "LE TRAY CARAIBE".
The nature box is now complemented by the Jardin de Saint-Ange, which promotes fresh agricultural products with high added value from biodiversity to support traditional and responsible local agriculture.
"Take advantage of my commercial training, my experience in business & my passion for fruits," to live and eat better "in order to support the agricultural sector and bring back to our tables the fruits and vegetables which are the wealth of our island."
