Harvesting

Best Before

We believe in mindful consumption and want to share some insights on best before dates, especially when it comes to our dried foods. Best before dates indicate peak freshness and quality, not safety. Dried foods, such as grains and legumes, can often be safe and nutritious beyond their best before dates. They may lose a bit of their peak quality, but they remain a valuable and sustainable food source.

We encourage you to trust your senses. If stored properly and free from moisture, dried foods can maintain their safety and flavour for an extended period beyond the best before date. Embrace a less wasteful approach by exploring and using these ingredients even if they've passed their best before dates. Together, let's reduce food waste and maximise the full potential of every pantry staple.

Explore Waste Savers, where you'll find items approaching or past their best before date at reduced prices. Embrace conscious consumption, reduce food waste, and give these products a second chance. Your purchase not only saves you money but also contributes to a more sustainable and mindful approach to nourishment.

Packaging & Storage

You’ll receive your Organic Sunflower Seeds in a compostable kraft bag (unless you chose to get a compostable resealable pouch instead). These will be fine stored in the kraft bag for an extended time although, we recommend decanting and storing them in an airtight container to maintain optimum quality. Once decanted, you can save multiple bags and return them to us for a reward.

The History of Organic Sunflower Seeds

Organic sunflower seeds date back to 3000 BCE when they were first cultivated by Native American tribes. These nutrient-dense seeds were highly valued for their versatility and nutritional benefits. In the 16th century, European explorers brought sunflower seeds back to their homelands, where they gained popularity as a snack and cooking ingredient. Fast forward to the present day, organic sunflower seeds have become a staple in health-conscious diets, appreciated for their high levels of vitamin E, magnesium, and healthy fats. Their heritage as a wholesome and sustainable food source continues to resonate with foodies seeking natural, organic products.
