Emergence of Royal Quinoa

 

From the thousands of variant strains of quinoa to blossom in the Andes, Royal Quinoa has risen as the most cherished. Awarded its own Designation of Origin in 2014, Royal Quinoa can only be grown in the saline soil surrounding the Great Salt Desert of Uyuni. This heirloom strain has been hand nurtured by local farmers to thrive in the region’s uniquely extreme environment. Royal Quinoa is sought after for its size, excellent texture, and its superior flour for pastas and baked goods.

Past Feeds Present…


The indigenous Aymara farmers in the Andean Altiplano of Bolivia have a proverb that says, “The Future Was Planted Thousands of Years Ago”. With the rest of the world recently recognizing the potential of this mighty ancient plant, these words have never been more true. We source our Royal Quinoa directly from the ancestral Bolivian Farmer’s Coalition known as ANAPQUI (Asociación Nacional de Productores de Quinua), with whom we maintain a close partnership. We proudly guarantee that the products you receive are 100% Fair Trade and were produced using wholly organic methods that have sustained this region for thousands of years. To the farmers of ANAPQUI, the culture of quinoa represents nutrition, tradition, religion, and hope for the future. At Andean Pride, we aspire to protect this sacred culture, while helping their communities grow by sharing the beauty of their land with the world.

Remembering Pachamama

 

Our products rely entirely upon organic and sustainable methods of production. The meticulous techniques that were applied weren’t developed to meet a recent market trend. Harmony with nature and paying respect to Pachamama (Mother Earth) have been essential ideals in Andean culture since before the time of the Incas. Thousands of years of love and care allow this land to continue to produce the finest quinoa products in the world.
