From a young age of 15, Dylan literary followed his parents footsteps to the vanilla plantation on a daily basis. He is one of 10 children and the only son in the family to have continued his passion for vanilla in his professional life.
The three hectares plantation located close to Andapa has about 1,000 plants which produces maximum five
tons of mainly Bourbon and Thahiti vanilla p/year. Additionally, some Pompona as well as some Mangitsy Ampotony is grown (which is not intended as a premium export product as it has a lower vanillin content).
 
In 2015, Dylan started farmers cooperative named ''Madagascar Natural Products'', or MNP for short. The cooperarive provides agricultural training, equipment to its members when needed, such as flashlights and raincoats. Through education and support, MNP's objective is to help its vanilla growers meet the highest possible quality requirements. As of 2016, there are four member families with eight individual farmers each. In total there are 32 farmers located in areas stretching from and around Andapa to Sambava.
