This is the selection of dried herbs and spices available at The Root and The Leaf. The price indicated is the price per ounce. We do our best to have organically grown or ethically wildcrafted herbs, and when we can’t find them, we try for grown without chemicals. Organically grown means the herb was grown on a certified organic farm. Ethically wildcrafted means the herb was gathered in the wild in a manner that will not endanger the herb’s species or its environment. (If an herb is endangered in the wild we will not buy it unless it can be grown organically). Grown without chemicals means that the herb was grown without using chemical fertilizers, insecticides or herbicides, but it is not certified organic. If there are any herbs you want which you do not see on this list, please let us know, as we may be able to order them for you. With special orders our minimum is one pound.
