Our medium shredded coconut is harvested from that fleshy part of the coconut.

Medium shredded coconut is a versatile size of this product, but we offer two other raw coconut meat variations, as well as a host of other coconut options:

Scientifically referred to as Coco Nucifera, coconuts are found in tropical regions along both the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, including the Indian Ocean, South Pacific, Hawaiian Islands and the Caribbean.
