We are a small-scale producer of culinary & medicinal herbs. All herbs are grown on our certified organic farm in British Columbia & are hand harvested, dried, & packaged on site in a dedicated approved facility. Our products are picked at their peak & dried in small batches to retain shape & flavour. Our farm also uses regenerative farming practices, such as using animals (goats, sheep, pigs) to maintain & prepare new beds. This ensures that not only are we organic, but no heavy machinery ever touches the soil, & we maintain a healthy soil ecosystem. Basil is one of the must-have annual kitchen herbs & maybe the most famous in the Mediterranean cuisine. It has been used since ancient times (apparently remains of basil were found in Egyptian burial chambers). Cultivated in numerous forms & flavours around the globe, Basil contributes with its aromatic taste & its shiny, oval leaves to large variety of dishes. Salads, soups, sauces including the well-known Pesto, chicken & many more are the perfect partners for this one. Basil is also an ingredient in the world-renowned French herb mix Herbes de Provence. There are several medicinal uses that are claimed for basil as well (treatment of vomiting, headache & nervous stress). It can also be used as an insect repellant. 8g whole leaf dried with possibly some flowers for colour Packaged in a paper bag with plastic lining to retain freshness & keep moisture out Store away from light, heat or moisture We cannot guarantee the effectiveness of any plant medicine but grow, harvest & dry according to principles that retain medicinal value If you are interested in buying larger quantities at reduced prices, please see our 20g package listing or get in touch.
