The co-op has been selling products from Canaan Fair Trade since 2018. In 2021, Canaan increased their wholesale pricing due to low yields from the 2020 olive harvest and the impact of COVID-19 on their business and the family farm cooperatives they work with across 52 villages in Palestine. Pricing has slightly increased in 2024 in response to a difficult 2023 olive harvest impacted by violence in the West Bank, roadblocks, and movement restrictions.
In order to support Palestinian farmers and offer their goods at a fair price to shoppers, the co-op sells Canaan products at slightly above wholesale cost (with no additional shopper discounts at the register).
A few weeks ago, we added Burlap and Barrel single-origin spices to our selection (most of our teas, herbs & spices are from Mountain Rose). They are available in small-sized glass containers or larger plastic containers, unfortunately not yet available in bulk from this supplier.
Are these packaged spices organic, although none of them are labeled as organic?
You asked, and we reached out to our supplier. Here’s the answer we received: “Most of these packaged spices are grown organically, with some certified by local or European agencies. However, organic certifications are expensive – often too costly for independent farmers to afford. We are working with partner farmers to help them obtain organic certifications. This is why our labeling does not reflect the organic growing process.”

Arrowroot powder (or flour) is derived from the root of a tropical plant called Maranta arundinacea. It can replace corn starch as a thickening agent, but it is not derived from (often genetically modified) grains, and is obtained through a more natural process. Arrowroot powder can also be mixed with other flours for gluten-free baking. And it has multiple health benefits!
Try it for $4.67/lb (in bulk).

Cooking tips:
Do not rinse it! Rinsing can remove the bamboo, which dulls the dolor.
1.5 to 1 water to rice ratio
Simmer 15 to 20 minutes. Just cook until the water is absorbed.
Steam covered for 5 minutes. This final step is important to get the right texture. Jade rice is moist and stickier than a standard white or brown rice.
