Organic Hearts of Palm
Certified Organic

These delicious, smooth and tender Amazon Rainforest Organic
Hearts of Palm, with their distinguishing natural white color and light
flavor, are harvested under a strict and highly successful program
of forest conservation in the Peruvian Amazon Rainforest. The natural
and wild environment of the Amazon produces the world's highest quality
hearts of palm without the use of any chemicals - as nature intended.
Harvested from the native premium "Euterpe" palmito variety,
these hearts of palm are renowned not only for their flavor and texture,
but also because consumers are directly driving conservation of the
Amazon. Over thirty international awards have been bestowed on their
quality.
Harvest requires that each palm has seeded twice before
it is harvested, assuring the preservation of the forest and
a long-term sustainable industry for local communities. The conservation
program
also involves the rotation of harvest areas within a large expanse
of natural rainforest, further reducing the impact of harvesting
and protecting a larger area of the Amazon and its biodiversity
through Conscious Consumerism. Because only adult palms can be harvested,
the diameter of the heart pieces is generally fairly large
and thick
(1 to 2 inches diameter) but still maintain a softness characteristic
of this premium, natural variety.
