Camellia Brand Dried Great Northern Beans, 1 Pound (Pack of 2)

For nearly a century, Camellia beans, peas and lentils have been nurturing families and Southern traditions, bringing people together to make memories and enjoy delicious meals. Our founder L.H. Hayward began selling red beans in 1923 at the old French Market in New Orleans, and his son, Gordon Hayward, trademarked "Camellia Brand" after his mother's favorite southern flower. Around 1940, Gordon came up with the revolutionary idea to package beans in individual cellophane bags, which have remained an iconic staple in the kitchens across New Orleans and the U.S.A.

At Camellia, we are meticulous about everything we do – sourcing only the freshest, premium quality beans, so that you can cook your favorite dishes to creamy perfection. We're proud that our legumes are grown by American farmers we've worked with for generations, and we secure only their freshest, premium quality beans that outrank the highest USDA grade, which we label as "Hayward Standard" beans.

New Orleanians are true bean lovers, and for generations, our signature red kidney beans have been at the very heart of New Orleans' famous Red Beans & Rice tradition. Camellia Brand now packages 18 different varieties of beans, peas and lentils, providing families in Louisiana, the Gulf Coast region, and across the U.S.A. with the essential ingredient for quintessential soul food favorites and traditional New Orleans' style dishes.

Our passion for bean quality spans four generations, and we've always delivered the highest quality beans with the creamiest texture. We take pride in our products, and our customers rely on Camellia to cook the hearty, traditional meals their families love. Whether you're reaching for our Red Kidney Beans, Large Lima Beans, Blackeye Peas, or any of our hearty dinner mixes like Jambalaya Mix or Louisiana Bean Soup Mix, you can be assured that we put our heart and soul into our products, and that's a recipe that has kept us around for 95 years and counting.

Our dry beans, peas and lentils are packed with essential vitamins, antioxidants, and electrolytes, and they are gluten-free and non-GMO. They are a great source of protein for vegans and vegetarians, and can be simmered or used in soups, stews, and side dishes. Whether you're creating a snack for the day or a warm porridge for the evening, Camellia's beans, peas and lentils are the perfect choice.
