Our Organic Pinto Beans come from selected farms which work according to strict regulations for organic agriculture. This means no artificial fertilisers or chemical pesticides are used - the environment is being protected and the natural balance stays intact. Upon harvest the beans are brought to the factory where they are cleaned, selected on size and polished. They are then laser sorted, hand picked, twice controlled on quality before being made ready for shipment.
