Where to get Natto Bacteria in North America


Bacillus Natto bacteria are in a spore form. So they can be kept very well for long time if they are stored in a cool place. You should keep the bacillus natto package in a refrigerator once it is opened. I have been using a package that is more than three-year old without any noticeable degradation.

Canada:
