We've just posted the first of 9 videos on the use of herbs and history of Herbfest to help educate our customers on the herbs. Video little grainy but does have
some information you may find helpful.
First three videos deal with how Herbfest started, what
it's about and third one on why use organic seeds for our organic herbs and vegetables.
Some of The Herbs Offered:
Below are examples of some of the herbs we have offered at previous herbfests. This is by
no means all inclusive as many broad groups such as "rosemary" may actually be comprised of 10 different varieties
but just to give you an idea of what to expect. Also we try to add in as many unusual rare herbs as we can find each
day of the herbfest although those herbs are usually limited to no more than 90 plants each day.

Premiering Use of Organic Pots
Herbfest, 2007 was one of the first plant sales in the U.S. to
use biodegradable containers for our herb plants. These environmentally friendly sustainable containers insure your food,
seasoned with our herbs, provides a healthy option for you. In 2008 our grower, John Wrenn, obtained USDA
certification for his organic growing methods and processing.
HerbFest 2008 will feature certified
organic herbs and certified organic vegetables grown from organic seeds. We strive to continue to emphasize our
goal of being a healthy lifestyle festival for those attending.
We continue
to work with our growers to produce biodegradable and plantable pots to minimize your efforts and also to restore nutrients
to our soils.
