In Real Vanilla, Nature-s Unsung Hero LittlePod-s founder Janet Sawyer tells of her company-s mission over the last fifteen years to save real vanilla which was under threat of being lost within a generation. They have made a huge difference, encouraging the development of vanilla paste in a tube, supporting farming communities in the world-s equatorial regions and educating consumers all around the world about the importance and value of vanilla to the planet. Through LittlePod supporting a pioneering polyculture orchard in Indonesia, it has helped educate future generations about a precious plant that is the essence of sustainability. This is a fascinating story of how a determined woman used the -empty nest- time in her life to build a company whilst learning about biodiversity, supporting farmers- livelihoods and creating a family of human relationships - fondly known as -LittlePodders-.
