To make sure we have the best saffron, we bring farmers together to train them on food safety, standard packaging, and safe processing of saffron. By importing artisanal Afghanistan saffron, Heray Spice is employing 30 local family farmers in Herat. We source our beautiful spices directly from them, and empowering their community with fair-trade principles.
