Hi Newlanders,
Is there any interest in some naturally grown vanilla beans? They're not certified organic as the certification is costly and time consuming but they are pretty bloody close.
A family friend grows vanilla beans in Far North Queensland and as my mum is coming down for Christmas she is going to bring some beans in her luggage. This will save on the carbon footprint of getting them posted, on postage costs, packaging and a discount for buying in bulk! You can get about 2-3 beans in 10 grams ($9). I'm hoping to be able to get enough people interested to order at least 100 grams (200 would be great!).
Bloomfield Vanilla will also be producing vanilla powder and essence in the future. I have some of their beans at home and they are magnificent. Completely different to what I imagine is the stale stuff available at the supermarket!
Check out www.bloomfieldvanilla.com.au for more information on their product.
Contact me if you want in on the beany action - Janya 0405 303 442 frogsrgood@gmail.com
I need to finalise orders tonight/tomorrow morning as my mum is packing her bags!
