The first sighting of the cashew tree was by the Portuguese as they invaded Brazil in the 1500’s. Portuguese seamen brought the seeds of the cashew nut tree from Brazil to be planted by early settlers along the east coast of Africa. Cashew trees can grow up to 50ft tall and live for 30-40 years. A tree of this size will only produce 10lbs. of cashews a year!
