Herb Product List

Everything is grown and produced and wildcrafted by this farm…….practicing the highest standards of sustainable growing & stewardship. Our integrity and our lifestyle, setting an example and not allowing anything from the property unless it is superior for the family to eat has been and will always be foremost in our practices. We use no synthetic fertilizers, fungicides, pesticides or herbicides. We add no colours, no salt, no MSG, no preservatives to any of our product. Absolutely no type of food irradiation touches our product. Our crops are picked at peaked times and processed here, at the farm. We want any of you who live far away, to have confidence in what we do, just as those locally do. Hence, our new 2008 slogan:

“Nothing added…. and nothing taken away”

We are very small and usually sold out by Christmas. Please bear this in mind when ordering. Best to order from May on with first orders filled in June depending upon the weather. Call or e-mail with your request.

We love growing herbs!!! Our passion for growing and tending herbs leads us to gather and share information about them with others. Our goal is to help you to educate yourself about herbs' many offerings - from scent to culinary purposes to medicinal and on to nutritional.  Many herbs provide lots of nourishment, such as vitamins and minerals.

Herbs have power!!! While we hope that our research will be helpful for the users of our herbs and teas, we do not intend to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any ailment, nor do we advocate self-diagnosis or self-medication. Symptoms, however minor, need to be discussed with a health-care professional of your choice before they are treated with any medicinal herb, no matter how mild it may seem.

Please be aware that any plant substance, whether used as food, drink or medicine, externally or internally, may cause discomfort, an allergic reaction, or an adverse side effect in some people. Because each one of us has a completely unique constitution, one person may respond to an herb with dramatic success, while another may not respond at all or even feel negative effects. Do not be discouraged! Learn as much as you can and consider what medications you may already be taking. Be persistent when working with natural healing alternatives. Plants, although very powerful and effective, often need more time to do their work. Continue to work with the advice from a health professional until you find the modality or substance that will bring you back to balance and health.

We accept no liability for the misuse of the herbs that we grow, harvest, and/or sell. Please inform yourself of the properties of each plant you plan to use by accessing the following recommended websites and books.
As herbal information is continuously evolving, new information may cause future modifications to become necessary.
Carefully explore the world of herbs. Be wise.
