How to purchase herbs:

Herbs are generally purchased by pre-order (recommended) or by walk in at our location on Laguna Farm in Sebastopol (1720 Cooper Road). Walk in inventory is limited, so pre-ordering is highly recommended. Fresh herbs are cut to order and delivered to the Herb Exchange on Tuesday mornings for distribution.

Walk in Hours: 2-5pm Tuesdays or other days by arrangement.

Address: 1720 Cooper Road, Sebastopol, CA

Currently available herbs can be ordered for pickup from our Laguna Farms location (1720 Cooper Road) on Tuesday of the following week. Please call or email your order by the Wednesday preceding your Tuesday pick-up. Shipping is generally available with an additional handling charge.

Herbs can also be pre-ordered for pickup when they become available.

Once you have a pre-order on file, you can feel free to update it throughout the season.

Pre-ordering is a very good way to make sure you get the herbs you want in your medicine cabinet or kitchen for the 2024 season, as SCHE operates on a first request, first provide basis. Sometimes, pre-orders completely deplete the inventory of certain herbs, so it is highly recommended that you pre-order your desired herbs as early as possible.

How to order/preorder:

To order, please send an email to herbexch@sonic.net with the following information:

Requested herbs (preferably listed in alphabetical order) by common name (if you know the botanical name, please include for the sake of clarity).

The part that you are looking for (leaf, root, berry, herb, bark, etcetera).

Whether you want fresh or dried. We will assume that you want fresh herbs unless you specify dried.

The amount that you want of each herb. Please note we ask a minimum of 1/2 lb per fresh herb request.

EXAMPLE:

1 lb ASHWAGANDHA (Withania somnifera) ROOT, FRESH.

2 lbs ELECAMPANE (Inula helenium) ROOT DRIED

2 lbs NETTLE (Urtica dioica) HERB FRESH

Once your order has been reviewed, you will receive a call or email confirming availability. For pre-orders, you will be contacted near harvest dates to arrange pickup or delivery.
