How it does good
Ethical trading, fair wages, quality vanilla
“Vanilla” is often synonymous with simple, neutral, or boring. But the vanilla bean is one of the hardest crops to grow. It only flowers once a year and has to be picked, by hand, right away. Eighty percent of vanilla comes from Madagascar, where its been painstakingly harvested for generations. But, at the same time, almost 80% of the people in the country, vanilla farmers included, are living in poverty. The Vanilla Bean Project set out to change this, with a commitment to buying from small-batch, women-owned makers, breaking the tradition of a few vanilla companies monopolizing the market and selling their extract for high prices the growers don’t see. The result is a high-quality extract that ensures financial security for the farmers, suppliers, and communities it comes from.
By sourcing vanilla beans directly from smallholders, the Vanilla Bean Project ensures a transparent supply chain, all the way back to the village the vanilla orchid was grown in. They're dedicated to providing continuous support to their partners and paying for the full value of their crops.
Learn MoreInspired by farmers markets, the Vanilla Bean Project purchases its vanilla from local growers in Madagascar, cutting down on the impacts of transportation and storage. By sourcing naturally, they also limit the use of synthetic ingredients and petrochemicals.

About the Brand
Vanilla Bean Project
Vanilla Bean Project wants to provide a better option for vanilla the same way industry leaders are providing fair-trade coffee and slavery-free cocoa. Vanilla is probably already in your pantry, but the founders of Vanilla Bean Project want you to join them in changing the old ways for the better. By using quality vanilla beans that come directly from local grower cooperatives and women-owned businesses in Madagascar, they're setting new standards for an old business.
*How to use
Once you’ve used your pods, dry them and grind with sugar for a luxurious powdered topping to anything sweet.
