Thanks for supporting your local growers who offer medicinal herbs grown according to organic
protocol. You are making a difference with each purchase.
When placing a request for herbs, please specify the plant part as noted in the above offerings:
flower tops, herb, leaf/flower, whole plant, etcetera; and the amount you want per herb (we ask 1/2 lb
minimum per fresh herb request).
We will assume you want fresh herbs unless you specify dried.
Please note, in general, growers prefer to sell fresh. We offer dried herbs as available.
Please have your requests in by Wednesday, for pick up or delivery the following Tuesday, given the
parameters we have in place, as we are a first request, first provide operation.
If you have placed a pre-order, your requests will be filled first.
We are requiring all buyers to support the overseeing non-profit entity the Sonoma County Herb
Association, by being a member. If the Association goes away, so does the Herb Exchange.
Basic membership is $35 for the year.
You can join online here: https://www.sonomaherbs.org/membership
You can also ask for a membership form and we will gladly offer it up in an email or when you come in
to pick up your herbs. It’s pretty straight forward.
We appreciate your ongoing support. Thank you.
We’re all in this together.
Plants and peace,
Barbara Jean (BJ) Avery, Driector
