For Vanilla Growers

We Don't Just Buy Vanilla.
We Help Grow the Industry.

Jones & Co. provides technical assistance, expert mentorship, DNA sequencing, vanilla cuttings, and guaranteed market access to vanilla growers around the world — new and experienced alike.

Our Mission

Supporting Vanilla Farmers in Every Corner of the World

Vanilla farmers are scattered throughout the world — many in remote areas with limited access to technical knowledge, quality genetics, and reliable markets. Our mission goes far beyond buying their beans. We help new growers get their first crops in the ground, connect experienced curers with beginners, and facilitate mentor-mentee relationships across continents.

A rising tide lifts all ships. By creating a market that values origin diversity and quality, we give growers a reason to invest in excellence — and we give consumers access to vanillas they never knew existed. When one grower succeeds, it strengthens the entire vanilla community.

How We Help

Comprehensive Grower Support

Whether you're starting your first vanilla vine or scaling a commercial operation, we have the resources and connections to help you succeed.

Technical Assistance

Hands-on guidance for vanilla cultivation — from site selection and shade management to pollination techniques, harvest timing, and curing methods. Our network of experts spans decades of experience across multiple species and climates.

Mentor-Mentee Connections

We help new growers source cuttings and connect experienced growers and curers with beginners. A farmer in Madagascar can share curing techniques with a new grower in Florida. One of our experts in Europe has advised startups all over the world. We make those connections happen.

DNA Sequencing

DNA sequencing is done at the Florida Tropical Research Center. Knowing exactly what species you're growing — Planifolia, Tahitensis, Pompona, or a rare local variant — is critical for marketing, pricing, and cultivation strategy.

Vanilla Cuttings

For growers in Florida, the Caribbean, and other suitable climates, we have sources of quality vanilla cuttings. Access to verified, healthy planting material is often the biggest barrier for new growers — we help you clear it.

Guaranteed Market Access

We don't just advise growers — we buy their vanilla. By creating a market for diverse origins and species, we give growers the confidence to invest in quality. When you grow it right, we'll find customers who value it.

The Vanilla Handbook

The Vanilla Handbook by Piero Bianchessi covers every stage of vanilla production — from planting and shade management to pollination, harvest, curing, and quality grading.
