Why Sail Cargo? ⛵️ 📦 ⠀
-⠀
'The biggest impact for me of Sail Cargo is the community we’re building, the human aspect of it. If I put a pallet of olive oil on a truck to the Netherlands, there’s this unhappy guy who loads the pallet, gets a paper signed and drives off. There are no questions, there is no “How cool! Tell me what you are doing here!” With the ship comes stories and experiences. I think this is what the world needs right now. We need to know where our food comes from.' - Marije Passos⠀

Kerry's been sending in beautiful photos of her recent trip to meet Jorge, a rice farmer from the Baixo Mondego, Portugal. These photos give us a glimpse into his world, the fields he cares for, and his sustainable practice. More photos will follow soon.⠀

It is a joy to gather photos and interviews from all of our producers and to share these with you in our yearly New Dawn Journal. This year's edition will be out soon... watch this space!⠀

“The health and wellbeing of the ocean has a hug

“The health and wellbeing of the ocean has a huge impact on our climate resilience and the whole planet, and we don’t have a very visceral relationship to what goes on at sea anymore […] a large part of what we do is bring this issue into the public conscience because over the last 100 years, as a culture we’ve really turned our attention away from the ocean” 🌎 ⠀
-⠀
Alex spoke recently with Tia of @breakfast_and_beyond Podcast. The two talked about putting people first, supporting small-scale growers and challenging the whole system - or business model - of the global shipping trade. ⠀
-⠀
It's a wonderful conversation exploring all elements of what we do and why we do it. You can listen on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. Episode 9. Link in our bio. 🎧

Portugal is home to over 300 native grape varietie

Portugal is home to over 300 native grape varieties 🍇 ⠀
Varying from the wild vines of the thick-skinned Ramisco, trailing low across the Atlantic battered sands of Colares, producing wines as gnarly as the grapes themselves; to the blousey, generous and damn right easy Alicante Bouchet, grown in the uninterrupted heat of the Algarve.⠀
-⠀
Climatic conditions in Portugal range from cooler and wetter in the North to the sunny, dry microclimate of the South. In the West the climate is heavily influenced by the Atlantic, which casts its influence far beyond the coast, leaving just the interior, close to the Spanish border experiencing more continental conditions. The mountainous topography of the North, with altitudes, slopes and aspects provides yet further variety. With such a huge range of growing conditions, it is only logical that a diverse range of grapes has been cultivated to suit them.'⠀
-⠀
Debbie of @wildwineschool takes us on a journey exploring the myriad of grape varieties Portugal has to offer in this year's New Dawn Journal. Pick up a copy at one of our markets or online through the link in our bio. ⠀

We got the low down on bee pollen from our friend

We got the low down on bee pollen from our friend Marina at Éme - a sail cargo superfood!⠀
-⠀
The jars we sell are full of small grains of pollen collected from @beemehappyculture hives. 🐝 ⠀
-⠀
The colour and flavour of the grains vary depending on the flowers around the hives and the time of year, meaning Eme's pollen is a tribute to the rich variety of flora in their region of Trás-os-Montes. Marina tells us the greater the botanical diversity around the hives, the greater the nutritional value. ⠀
-⠀
Because of this bee pollen is considered a natural dietary superfood; rich in proteins, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. It can be eaten on its own (a dessert spoon a day) or goes well with milk, yoghurt, juices, smoothies, cereals, granola and fruit. ⠀
-⠀
Order from the link in our bio.⠀
The last order cycle of the year closes on Sunday 12th Dec.⠀
-⠀
(*Not recommended for people with allergies to products derived from the hive, pregnant or nursing women or children under 2. If you suffer from any illness you should consult your doctor before consuming. Store in a cool, dry place, protected from light.)

Healthy diet, healthy planet means… beans! 🌍

Healthy diet, healthy planet means… beans! 🌍 ⠀
Beans are the foundation of a low-impact and healthy diet. Our beans are produced by the Reigado family on their farm in northeast Portugal. Intercropped amongst their olive trees are beans, peas, nuts and fruit. About as far away from intensive farming as you can get.⠀

To order your beans, head to the link in our bio.⠀

We have a very limited number of prints left from the talented Adam Latham whom we commissioned to represent each of our new products. 🌴 ⛵️ 🎨 ⠀
-⠀
Adam works with Indian-ink fineliners and watercolours to make detailed drawings in a technique reminiscent of natural history illustrations. In each image you can see the Gallant approaching the land with a bird or birds taking centre stage. For our coffee he chose the Channel-billed Toucan that makes its home across the Caribbean and South America from Trinidad to Bolivia, including Colombia, where the coffee beans are grown. For the panela he chose the Crowned Woodnymph Hummingbird found in northern Colombia, in the Sierra Nevada where the Arhuaco people who grow the sugar cane and make the panela live. And for our chocolate he chose the Scarlet Ibis, the national bird of Trinidad and Tobago, where the cocoa beans were grown.⠀
-⠀
These images and their style are reminiscent of the early voyages of discovery and should for many reasons make us feel uncomfortable. We are very aware of the ill-fated journeys that we are retracing. With New Dawn Traders we are committed to repurposing the tools of trade for the benefit of all people and the planet.⠀

All profits from the sale of these posters go to Falmouth and Penryn Welcome Refugee Families.⠀

We spoke to our photographer Kerry about the story

We spoke to our photographer Kerry about the story behind this gorgeous portrait of Justino Reigado, one of our olive producers in Northern Portugal. ⠀
-⠀
"On that day when I took that photo he’d been telling me about how a few mornings earlier he’d walked into the barn to find a ferret had killed all of his chickens, there was just one shell shocked survivor and the rest were all dead. That’s what he was thinking about when I took the photo. He was in the middle of that story." @kerry_photo⠀
-⠀
So grateful to see these glimpses of life on the farm. 📷 👨‍🌾

Instead of giving someone a bottle of wine this Christmas, why not give Olive Oil instead? 🤷‍♀️⠀
It certainly lasts longer.... plus our ceramic bottles look great on the shelf! You can pick up one of these from our markets. They are the perfect decanters for our 5L extra-virgin-organic olive oil boxes from our Producers in Portugal.⠀

'Tack to the future: is wind propulsion an ecomodernist or degrowth way to decarbonise maritime cargo transport?' 🌬 ⠀
-⠀
We really recommend a read of Christiaan de Beukelaer’s latest article in Climate Policy. It's an in-depth study of how wind propulsion technologies, both old and new, can work towards closing the 'emissions gap' between projected emissions and the reduction target set by the @imo in 2018. The link to the PDF is in our bio.⠀

Meet Justino Reigado. 👨‍🌾 ⠀
Quieter and more unassuming than his wife Emilia, who usually attracts our spotlight, Justino is simply doing what his family have done for generations, farming olives on their beautiful lands in the Côa Valley, Portugal. Here he is checking the olive bud in their groves in the back in spring.⠀
-⠀
When it's not harvest or planting season Justino also drives a fruit truck around, selling to the local towns of the region whilst Emilia and their son Hugo keep things running back at the farm.⠀
-⠀
If you'd like to try our Reigado Olive Oil it is available to order through the link in our bio, or you can pick up a box at one of our markets. ⠀

Orders close tonight... ⏰ ⠀
We would be especially grateful if you would buy our chocolate! The “Best Before“ date for these bars is end of December, after which we can no longer sell them. Though we have almost recovered the cost of making them, we promised a profit share with the Alliance for Rural Communities in Trinidad and Tobago (ARCTT) who supplied us with the cocoa beans. So any bars sold over the next two months will be more money in their pocket.⠀
-⠀
@thenewruraltt are deeply inspiring. They support and develop financially independent, community-owned chocolate businesses & affiliated projects using rural resources, labor & creativity. You can find out more about their work from our journal article (link in bio). ⠀
