One of our best sellers just got a $15 price increase per case.Â
Canning jars have seen a 27% increase in price and organic brown rice flour has seen a 30% increase in price. Even the price of vermiculite has gone up 25% and we are having a hard time getting the grade of vermiculite we like to use.
Sure we can buy non-organic brown rice flour for half the price of organic but we won't. Pesticides and fungicides are heavily used in rice farming and since mushrooms are a fungi the non-organic brown rice flour is not an option for us. Most BRF jars being sold on online are not made with organic flour and sell for about the same price as our organic jars.Â
We only want to sell the best products we can so our buyers stay happy and get bigger yields.
