What a great way to start a HAPPY 2022

​

SOUP JOUMOU (Squash soup) is more than just a dish. It is History, ancestry, bringing people together, remembering who we are in order to know where we are going! This traditional Haitian soup represents freedom, emancipation and independence. It's a reminder of the revolution that liberated the Haitian population on January 1st 1804. Since December 2021, UNESCO has added the Joumou Soup, to its intangible cultural heritage list.
