We’re proud to be a very small, local herb‑purveying company, and we see our true mom‑and‑pop size as one of our greatest strengths. Stepping away from the mass‑production methods used by large herb and spice companies allows us to focus on care, quality, and In handling and processing—both for our small company's reputation and ultimately to our family of members who love to cook recipes with the finest ingredients available.

For more than a decade, we’ve taken great pride in offering only the finest botanicals from the most recent harvests of our cooperative growers farms. Our member‑owned growers’ co‑op is made up of organic farmers, responsible wild‑harvest gatherers, and fair‑trade family farms from around the world. All of our botanicals are handled in small batches and come through our coop facilities from the current year’s harvest, then slowly air‑dried to preserve their natural aroma and the full range of their inherent health and flavor qualities. Each of our herb, spices and blends are carefully sifted, blended, and hand‑packaged just days prior to our market sales and upon receiving your online orders.

This small‑batch approach ensures that our customers receive herbs and spices that are fresh, pure, and full of character—and with a much longer usable life than commercially produced products which so often are already far beyound the typical prime useable life span after months of being wharehouse, shiped and sitting on the grocers shelf. Many of our customers tell us that once they experience the difference in aroma and flavor that small‑batch handling makes in their cooking, concerns about shelf life fade away, and the freshness and palet pleasing flavors incorage continuus use instead of sitting on your shelf wasting away . The real , concern becomes making sure they always have enough on hand when they need it.
