We are having a very good growing season,
especially after last years hurricane and lava threat. The flow was headed straight for our farm and we really thought the lava was going to cover it. As a result of that threat, we expanded and added different growing locations, vowing "not to put all of our eggs in one basket.” It was a lot of work, but our crops look great (and personally, our stress level has gone down to an appropriate level).
Additionally, we are trialing some new varieties of ginger and turmeric which are certainly exciting to us, and we think you will be thrilled with them too! With the growing demand for ginger, having a few different varieties may give you an advantage as far as offering a unique ginger or turmeric specifically suited to your purpose (say an especially high gingerol hot rhizome used for that incredible ginger ale and beer, or a fragrant varietal for your spice mixture). The cool thing is that ginger is not a one dimensional brown potato looking thing that it once was to American consumers. Overall, we are very pleased to be able to offer something new for y’all!
