Pre-Ordering for the 2025 Season and Internship Opportunities

 The world is, above all, everything the plants could make it.

~Emanuel Coccia

Dear Community of Plant People,

The Sonoma County Herb Exchange is accepting pre-orders for the 2025 season at this time.This is a very good way to make sure you get the herbs you want for your medicine chest for the season.
 

If you would like to place a pre-order, please respond to this email, or send an email to herbexch@sonic.net with the following information:
List your herbs in alphabetical order, and if you know the botanical name, please include for the sake of clarity.

Include the part you are looking for: aerial parts (herb), root, berry, leaf, etcetera.

Include the amount you want to for each herb, and whether you prefer fresh or dried herbs. Please note we ask a minimum of ½ lb per fresh herb request.

Dried herbs are offered as available.

Here’s an example:

2 LBS   BURDOCK ROOT (Arctium lappa) ROOT, DRIED
1 LB     CHRYSANTHEMUM (Chrysanthemum morifolium) FLOWER, FRESH
3 LBS   NETTLES (Urtica dioica) HERB, FRESH

Also, we are asking all buyers to support the overseeing non-profit entity, the Sonoma County Herb Association. If the SCHA goes away, so does the Sonoma County Herb Exchange. You can join here: www.sonomaherbs.org/membership

We appreciate your support!!!
                      

INTERNSHIP POSITIONS AVAILABLE

FOR THE 2025 SEASON  

We are offering a variety of internship positions at the Herb Exchange for the 2025 season. If you, or someone you know, are interested in learning hands on about medicinal herbs throughout the nine-month season (mid-March through mid-December), give us a shout for details and further conversation.
      

Despair is a tool of empire.

Individual and community action is the antidote to despair.

We got this!

We look forward to another vibrant season of plants and their people!

With gratitude for our collective empowerment  ,

Barbara Jean (BJ) Avery, Director
