Rancho Gordo. Heirloom Beans yo.






ranchogordo.com
The seeds of these special bean varieties are found throughout Central America but are grown in Napa CA. I love the concept of saving seeds... it allows heirloom varieties to continue existing... helping to preserve the cultures that grow them natively. Many heirloom ingredients are in danger of disappearing as they are not sold on the world market-because only varieties that travel well + last long on store shelves are chosen as commodities... taste and quality are not factored into the equation... that's why I love companies like Rancho Gordo who respect food/culture... plus they know a lil somethin somethin about packaging design+marketing.
