- The first reaction - yikes! The second - really! Reactions to Paula and her partners’ first insect farm in WA have been ‘interesting.’ Munching on roasted mealworms or crunchy crickets is not to everyone’s taste. Find a way to supplement energy bars, smoothies or ordinary flour with insect powder and all of a sudden there is a market. Paula and her start-up business Grubs Up are passionate about growing protein-packed, high-nutrition food that is sustainable and tasty. Her biggest challenge is to breed enough crickets in her vertical farming shed to produce enough insect powder for the growing health food market.
This is fantastic 👏🏿 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿how can learn it for the African Market?
We love insects in africa 🌍 but we need to learn how to produce them the all year
You go, Girrrl!!!! Best of Luck (from Brissie)
Hi there. Thank you for the very informative video. Can you influence the flavor of the cricket by what you feed them? (So Idaho USA)
Very good vídeo, i like 🤠🇧🇷
So awesome! My question is what breed are you using I'm in tassi and very interested just not sure if we have a similar breed?
Save the Earth and it's environs. Eat Insects.
Is there anything in the cricket that's harmful to consume?
Not that we’re of aware of anything. We have tasted the crickets in full and they’re are very tasty!
I need it below £30 the kilo!

How you kill them? You didn t show
Freezing or dorwning them is common way to kill them
Dip them in boiling water
We freeze them.
We are looking to do this on our Off-Grid Homestead soon!
