Really fresh shipped in from Belgium on a regular basis just remember to shake up the sack if you buy a sack as gravity does it's bit at letting all the little seeds drop to the bottom! Sprouts like flipping crazy if you soak it my lot love the variety of dried fruit chunks, Alfie likes dragging out the cedar nuts first but to be honest I have very little waste so I am not complaining. You can order it in smaller quantities from Garden Feathers they are the people who ship it in and distribute it to others
