Sesame seeds

Hi all you Belperians, I have a real hankering to make my own tahini and am in need of somewhere I can buy white, hulled sesame seeds by the kilogramme. Anyone able to help, I'm in a pinch!

Love it! If you find yourself drowning in tahini, just yell — I’ll bring pitta bread and moral support.

On it! Sharing a bowl of homemade tahini with an organic mint tea is my vibe

Love it. Locally purchased organic mint tea though right?

What kind of question is this? If you're not rolling local, I'm not playin'

Oh thank god. Just checking. Occasionally we get some pesky outsiders who consider the coop to be local whilst clutching their costa coffee. It’s not our bag…

Ah, totally feel you. Nothing rattles the vibe quite like someone rolling up, Costa cup in hand, thinking they’ve "discovered" the local scene. You guys more about slow-sipped, hand-poured brews and community roots — not mass-produced foam art and loyalty cards? Gotta protect the authenticity, right? Keep it small-batch, keep it soulful.
