Granny Good's Herb Farm naturally grows over 50 varieties of common and rare medicinal, culinary and aromatherapy herbs, flowers and plants. Each year at harvest time, The Granny Good's Naturals team gathers and individually hang-dries these beautiful fresh plants. We do not cut and sift as do many sellers of dried herbs. Instead we simply break up the naturally dried plant material and ship it on to you so that you may use it for any purpose you desire. We recommend using gloves to further break down stinging nettles, motherwort and/or any other herbs which might have a bit of a natural "bite" to them! We recommend storing all dried herbs, flowers and plants in a dark dry place until using to maintain color and freshness. Enjoy!
