Welcome to Gathering Place Trading,

Where We Direct Source the Best Organic Cinnamon (True) Cut & Sifted

True Cinnamon from South India

Gathering Place True Cinnamon powder, also known as Sweet Cinnamon or Ceylon Cinnamon, is hand harvested from family farms in South India. True cinnamon needs to be shade grown and enjoys growing under coconut and banana trees. True cinnamon has a less spicy, more complex, subtle, and naturally sweet flavour. The taste is beyond compare to the more familiar type of cinnamon, known as Cassia. Although popular, Cassia cinnamon contains coumarin, an anticoagulant that can be toxic to the liver. Many people with Type 2 diabetes take daily supplements of cinnamon. Several studies have shown improved insulin sensitivity and blood glucose control by taking as little as 1⁄2 teaspoon of cinnamon per day. Make sure you are using true cinnamon (and always consult your health care professional)!

About Our Indian Farming Cooperative

Nearly our entire line of spices comes from one amazing co-operative venture made up of 3000 farmers in Karnataka State of India. Food is produced organically, with great integrity in closed loop, permaculture systems, referred to as food forests. From harvesting rainwater to caretaking endangered plants to the creation of biogas for fueling their kitchens, these farmers are living examples of sustainable agriculture. This co-operative is making a huge difference in the lives of the farmers of this area and we feel enormously grateful to be able to support this grassroots initiative.
