The Voyage So Far...

"The seas are rising & so are we" ⠀ This weekend

"The seas are rising & so are we" ⠀
This weekend in Falmouth Harbour we rowed out with @theoceanrebellion , who were shining a light on the cruise liner Silja Europa. #OceanRebellion projected slogans onto the cruise liner such as "Make Shipping Great Again - Zero Carbon Ships Now". 🌊🌎⛵️⠀
-⠀
"The Silja Europa has been brought in from Estonia to house over 1000 police despite the fact there are empty ferries sitting in the Fal estuary and Falmouth docks. Calculations show that the environmental cost of renting this cruise ship is equivalent to every police officer on the boat driving to the moon and back 6 times in a fossil fuel-powered car."⠀
-⠀
We were also proud to paddle out with @surfersagainstsewage on Saturday to call on the G7 ministers to put the ocean at the heart of their talks.⠀
-⠀
It has been wonderful to feel the energy of a crowd again and to get out sailing over the last few days. People bring us so much joy and hope! ⠀

The shipping industry is a big polluter. Not only

The shipping industry is a big polluter. Not only do the ships themselves release harmful chemicals into the air and oceans but what they carry, more often than not, is also polluting. Around 80% of global trade is shifted by container ships, that means we all carry responsibility for the health of our oceans. With the G7 on our doorstep we look forward to tomorrow’s protest. We’re showing up for our children, for our kith and kin. Join us!
-
Posted @withregram • @surfersagainstsewage Along with 70 other organisations, we are calling on the #g7 to:

🔴 Stop damaging the ocean

🔴Protect manage and restore the ocean

🔴 Lead a decade of global ocean action

Creature of the week: The Honey Bee 🐝⠀ -⠀ O

Creature of the week: The Honey Bee 🐝⠀
-⠀
Our close relationship with bees dates back thousands of years and for good reason. These little miracle workers are a vital part of the environment and the food chain.⠀
-⠀
Asides from producing honey, we don't always think about the crucial roles bees have in the food chain. In the UK around 70 crops are dependent upon or benefit from pollination by bees. Globally an estimated 1/3 of the food we consume is reliant on bees (along with other pollinating insects, birds and bats). ⠀
-⠀
As well as keeping us fed and the world in flower, the substances honey bees produce have a huge range of health benefits. Honey, pollen & propolis are natural antioxidants, relievers of inflamation, reducers of stress and speeders of healing.⠀
-⠀
From our producers Éme @beeme_happyculture in Tras-os-Montés, Portugal we have bulk buy and jars of honey available in a range of flavours, as well as propolis and pollen. Their produce is the "fruit" of passion and respect for the place, the bees and all they offer.⠀
-⠀
Albert Einstein “If the bee disappeared off the face of the Earth, man would only have four years left to live.” ⠀

Miss Vitis wines are a ‘tribute to the identity

Miss Vitis wines are a ‘tribute to the identity of a territory’. They make fresh, live, exuberant natural wines with wild yeasts and organic methods. Their wines are also vegan, although some do not have the official accreditation yet.⠀
-⠀
Many of their wines come from the DOC Beira Interior. In this region winters are very harsh with negative temperatures, while the hot and dry days of the summer months contrast with the cool nights. This climate is one of the key elements for a slower and more uniform grape maturation. The area is also unique for presenting one of the most vigorous contrasts of Portuguese soil. Between the granite soils of the mountains and the schist soils of the Douro river basin at the North, there are many quartz veins. It is in the unique conditions of this region in which the indigenous grape varieties can thrive.⠀
-⠀
Wines from Miss Vitis are online and available for pre-order to arrive in July. Follow the link in our bio. ⠀

One month left to pre-order cargo from Portugal & France!⠀
-⠀
At New Dawn Traders we seem to do everything backwards, the opposite of instant gratification. The ship must sail with the winds, the farmers must grow with the seasons and we must wait for the bounty. ⠀
-⠀
In order to offer you these tasty wonders of collaboration, between soil, farmer, sailor and trader, at the most affordable price, we invite you to pay now and receive later. The earlier you can invest in our voyage the less risk for us or need for storage and desperate marketing. It means we only ship what we know you want, so nothing is wasted and you'll pay the wholesale price. ⠀
-⠀
Gallant is now on passage to Portugal, meaning Earlybird orders have closed, but Pre-Orders remain open, since these are collected whilst the ship is on her way. ⠀
-⠀
We invite you to collect your order from the ship when it arrives in Penzance in July. A chance to meet the ship and crew that carried your cargo. If you can't make it to PZ, check for your local port enterprise or we can arrange delivery by post. ⠀

Ta da! The gorgeous design for our hand-painted Olive Oil bottles! (Yet to be fired)⠀
-⠀
Each bottle is made from local clay and handpainted by artisans Rebelo and Barrico in the traditional 'Coimbra style'. Their workshop is in the same Portuguese village as our pioneer olive oil producer Marije of @passeite_azeite who noticed how as a result of the pandemic, their orders were reduced. Together we have collaborated on a unique design, with Gallant taking centre stage.⠀
-⠀
These beautiful bottles are a great way to dispense boxed olive oil and display proudly in your kitchen. They hold 375ml and come empty with a cork lid and pourer. Available to order through link in bio, to arrive on Gallant in July.⠀

🌱🍺 For Atlantic Brewery, it is pure and simple, the best beer comes from the best ingredients. ⠀
-⠀
Each brew starts with the beautifully sweet water drawn from the spring on their farm in Cornwall. It makes great brewing liquor and adds to the beers’ unique character.⠀
-⠀
Their organic malt comes from Warminster Maltings in Wiltshire, Britain’s oldest working floor maltings. Their hand crafted malts use the same tools and methods employed over 100 years ago.⠀
-⠀
The brewery started growing hops in 2004 and began to use them after a 3 year conversion period. Initial trials of Fuggles and First Gold varieties showed Fuggles to be suited to the Cornish climate, but not the hybrid First Gold. After some terrible summers they now have a robust annual crop from about 100 plants, mainly Fuggles with a few Bramling Cross. These are harvested in the second half of August and dried in the brewery ‘hot box’. As they are in limited supply, they only add their Cornish hops as late/aromatic hops to maximize the individuality of their oils and resins in the beer.⠀
-⠀
New to us this year and available to order through the link in our bio! 🍻

Yesterday was a bad day for big oil, but a triumph for humanity🔥

These historic rulings & decisions are the result of unrelenting and unwavering pressure on the fossil fuel industry by so many people.

We are hugely grateful to each and every individual working tirelessly to hold the fossil fuel industry accountable to their actions. May these events mark the beginning of the end of the fossil fuel era. 🙌

Getting up for the night watch and keeping up with

Getting up for the night watch and keeping up with a never-ending list of maintenance tasks are nothing compared to the camaraderie and laughs found onboard the Gallant as it makes its way across the Atlantic to load up on Colombian coffee and panela and Azores tea. Astrid, a Berlin-based climate researcher and musician, joined the Gallant for a second time as a trainee on the ship’s 2021 transatlantic journey. She boarded in Douarnenez, France in December 2020 and will disembark in Europe this summer. ⠀
-⠀
While Astrid can’t quite remember how she got into sailing, she does know it’s been a fascination for years. As a child she watched her dad go off sailing with friends, and later “got hooked” after taking sailing classes in university. In 2019 Astrid crossed the UK channel with Dhara from the @sail_boat_project in Chichester, who suggested she check out the Gallant for longer crossings. ⠀
-⠀
We spoke with Astrid to catch a glimpse of her life aboard the Gallant. We learned that it’s full to the brim of jovial moments and jaw-dropping views, while occasionally quite trying. She shares her experience of finding solitude when there is no personal space, the skills she’s developing, and picking up a new language on the job. ⠀

Our olive oil farmers do not only work with olives

Our olive oil farmers do not only work with olives. The olive trees are intercropped with nut and fruit trees, another bounty that we ship from Portugal by sail!⠀
-⠀
From Soresa, part of the @azeitecaixeiro family, we have organic dried almonds and caramelised almonds with carob or honey. The caramelised almonds are batch produced to order in the farm kitchen! A delicious treat and definitely a favourite on-desk-snack...⠀

Available for pre-order ready for 10th July! Follow this link to our shop. https://buff.ly/3iZd0T0⠀

We have partnered with five olive farmers in Portu

We have partnered with five olive farmers in Portugal, each with the same goal: To make delicious olive oil in harmony with the local ecosystems, nurturing both people and planet from soil to serving.⠀
-⠀
Originating from different regions with different olive varieties, each olive oil has its own uniquely nuanced flavour. The farmers are always kept on their toes, and this year was another with challenges and surprises on the groves. Spring came early and a sudden heatwave disrupted the pollination, specifically in Central Portugal. With the alternate bearing variety Galega, they knew this was a low fruit year. Most trees had almost nothing and many other farmers decided not to harvest at all. Luckily our farmers work with different varieties and harvest in different areas, so we're able to produce olive oils. For @passeite_azeite (photographed) 2020 ended up giving the best average yields for them so far! No two harvests, varieties, bioregions, or seasons are ever exactly the same.⠀

A big thank you to all involved in yesterday's car

A big thank you to all involved in yesterday's cargo mission. We unloaded around 4 tons in total of green coffee and panela sugar that was sailed across the Atlantic Ocean on board the @blueschoonercompany ship Gallant from Colombia.
-
We were so lucky with the weather, or shall I say, Captain Guillaume knew what was coming! The ship is now racing East in the English Channel with gale force 8 winds. Guillaume is affectionately called the Rain Captain, so I'm sure they are in their element.
-
Our cargo is now back at @argalhomefarm for roasting with @yallahcoffee and packaging ready to send out your orders. If you missed out on the Caribbean cargo, you can order coffee and panela along with all the Portuguese delicacies that we have on pre-order for the next voyage. (See shop link in bio)
-
A special thank you to Penzance Harbour for making us all feel so welcome. For the July visit, we will be back with our Ship Shop and - fingers crossed - a Ship Show!!

Yesterday the @blueschoonercompany ship Gallant sailed into Penzance Harbour after a 3-month voyage carrying cargo for us from Colombia. Today we unload our coffee and panela sugar!
-
Very excited to see the crew, happy that the sun is shining, and very grateful for the collaborations that make this all possible. For @caravelacoffee who connect us to the families that grow the coffee, for @yallahcoffee who selected the bean and will expertly roast them, for @purapanela who connected us to @comercializadoraseynekun who work with the Arhuaco people who produce the panela. For our port allies who have invested in the voyage - @sailcargolondon @kentsailcargo @venfretfrance @farmhandcoffee and all our customers who have pre-ordered!
-
A supply chain that connects cultures and continents with the added bonus of being pretty much completely emission-free!

Would you like to become a Port Enterprise? ⠀
-⠀
Port Enterprises, are as integral to our community as the farmers and the sailors. You know your community better than the rest of us whilst sharing our passion for our products and ships and for a healthy global food system.⠀
-⠀
You will become part of a network of other Port Enterprises who all work together to deliver a successful voyage. New Dawn Traders is developing a “Voyage Cooperative” business model, based on our collective experiences and desires. Over the next year, we will have useful tool kits to support new producers, ships, and port allies who wish to join the network.⠀
-⠀
We work cooperatively and reject a “business as usual” mindset. We communicate openly and share the knowledge, ideas, and resources we can for the benefit of the group.⠀
-⠀
The central premise of this network is to provide food of an exceptional quality at an honest price, delivered by sail. The care that our farmers and sailors give to their environment must be rewarded fairly but should also not only be available at luxury prices. For this reason, we strive to be transparent with our pricing structure and take only modest shares of the sales income.⠀

Last chance to get your coffee and panela at pre-o

Last chance to get your coffee and panela at pre-order prices. Order cycle ends tonight.⠀
-⠀
Sailed here on @blueschoonercompany from Colombia, our panela is from the Arhuaco people of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, a place defined by its mixture of magic and nature. Thirty-five glacier-fed rivers tumble down from the peaks of the Sierra Nevada, irrigating the plains and valleys of Ariguaní and Cesar rivers. With temperatures varying from 15-20 degrees, it is the perfect location to produce unequaled sugarcane. The panela produced by the indigenous community that lives here supports 180 families. Old traditions supported by the newest technology gives this panela its uniqueness. According to tradition, production starts with the moon phase calendar and it is said that the harvest thus acquires the magic of the sun that gives the cane its unique sweetness.⠀
-⠀
Our coffee was produced by a network of smallholders in Colombia, sourced by @caravelacoffee and will be roasted by @yallahcoffee in Cornwall.⠀
