Soon the cocoa harvest will begin in earnest and the vanilla harvesting will begin late November. As it looks like, the cooperation with the farmers and the training provided begins to bear fruits and both certified organic and fair trade vanilla and cocoa production are on the rise and the quality is getting better by the year!

Though parts of the vanilla crop are already dedicated we expect to have sufficient vanilla to cater for additional inquiries. With cocoa the situation will be different and interested customers are advised to contact us early for bookings.

Expect the first cocoa to reach Europe in March. Vanilla will be ready for delivery in July 2010.
