Frontier Co-op Black Peppercorns, Whole, Organic, Fairtrade Certified 1 lb.

Frontier Co-op® Whole Black Peppercorns are carefully selected from the world's premier pepper-producing regions to provide consistent size and premium quality. One of the world's most popular spices, black peppercorns are actually unripe green fruits (berries) that have been sun-dried after fermenting.

With Frontier's partner in Kerala, India, our fairtrade certified black pepper can be traced to the small-holder farmer. Frontier's projects with these farmers actually expand beyond just the certification with a number of projects that help farmers manage their crops through ongoing climate change, including past funding of a soil, plant and water testing lab, investing in an organic agriculture training program focused on building the soil and biodiversity, and promoting local varieties of pepper that are hardier against flood and drought conditions.

Look for the globally recognized logo on Frontier Co-op products.

Our organic, fair trade bulk whole black peppercorns are also kosher certified.
