The Quiver Tree is a species of aloe indigenous to Namibia and South Africa. Its name is derived from the practice of the local San people who hollow out the tree's tubular branches to make quivers for their arrows.
The founder of Quiver Tree Baking, Felix Mendelsohn, grew up in Nambia which has a rich tradition of baking real bread due to the country's historical ties with Germany. Felix started baking from a very young age and has always had a fascination for baking tools and kitchen equipment and the way that they ease and improve the baking process.
Quiver Tree Baking was born out of this love for baking, and just like the San people using what is available to them to make carrying their arrows easier, Quiver Tree Baking aims to make available to fellow bakers the tools necessary for making baking better.
