• How to buy Organic Lemon Balm

• Organic

• When buying herbs for health buying certified-Organic herbs provides an added layer of protection

• Fresh or Fresh-Dried

• At our farm we grow and dry our herbs right on our farm and ship direct to our customers meaning our herbs are fresh-dried.  The global herbal industry is large and far-flung, and in this global commodity market many times the herbs you are receiving are years old with questionable quality and potency.  Finding a farm that grows your herbs cuts down on the supply chain and ensures much higher quality.

• Dried at Low-Heat

• We dry our herbs on our farm ensuring we have fragrant potent herbs.  Lemon balm in particular has very sensitive characteristics.  Drying at high heat, while it can be more economical and cost-efficient can off these health-giving properties.  For that reason we dry at low temperatures for highly fragrant and potent herbs.

• Growing your own lemon balm is one of the best ways to ensure you know how your herbs are grown.  You can buy seeds or plants from here. Where that is not possible there are other options to ensure high quality.

• Shop Local

• Buying from suppliers who grow near to you where you can visit the farm and get to know your farmer is a great way to familiarize yourself with the growing practices of the farm and increases the probability you are getting fresh product.

• Shop Direct From the Grower

• Buying Lemon Balm direct from a grower is a great way to get potent, fresh herbs.  No middle man, no warehousing, just straight from the farm to you.  We have some ideas on where you can buy herbs direct from a grower ;).  Always check to make sure that the website is transparent about where the product is grown.  Some farms sell products from elsewhere including from overseas.

• Lemon Balm Pairs Well With Other Herbs

• Lemon balm is a light soothing herbs with a nice taste making it a great herb to pair with other herbs to add into a blend or to give a little zest to a less palatable or more bitter herb combination.

• Nettle: I personally don't think you can go wrong with nettle.  In the modern diet with our processed and fast food nettle is a power house that can be added to almost any blend.  With its subtle earthy flavor it doesn't overwhelm and can balance other herbs.

• Peppermint and Spearmint: As lemon balm is in the mint family you can't go wrong pairing it with peppermint or spearmint:  Yum!

• Chamomile: What is not to love about chamomile.  Well, not a lot.  Chamomile and lemon balm pair nicely.  As both are typically thought of to soothe, to relax and to calm there's a lot to like with this combination.  Beware of the chamomile from our farm.  It is so fragrant in its freshness you may want to blend it with some other herbs to complement it :)!
