Product description

Camellia History

Our founder L.H. Hayward began selling red beans in 1923 at the old French Market in New Orleans. His son, Gordon Hayward, trademarked “Camellia Brand” after his mother’s favorite southern flower.

Around 1940, he came up with the revolutionary idea to package beans in individual cellophane bags. To this day, those bags remain an iconic staple in the kitchens across New Orleans and the U.S.A.

Packed with Nutrition: Non-GMO and gluten-free, these beans deliver plant-based protein and fiber, fitting into any diet or lifestyle like vegan or vegetarian. Great Northerns are called “common beans” and are botanically classified as Phaseolus vulgaris alongside red kidney beans, black beans, pinto beans, pink beans, and navy beans.
Versatile Pantry Staple: A classic white bean that pairs well with meats, vegetables, and spices—ideal for comfort food and healthy meal prep. While they are popular in America, Great Northerns can be found in Serbian prebranac, a Serbian baked beans dish, and can be used as a substitute for Swedish brown beans in bruna bönor.
