Store Shelf Life Span

Store your herbs in clean, airtight containers, away from heat and light, and handle them thoughtfully. Amber glass jars with airtight lids are ideal. You might also keep them in a dark cupboard or drawer in the original packaging, sealed tightly while not in use.

The shelf life of herbs will vary according to the form and plant part. Those that have been cut or powdered have more surface area exposed to the air and can lose their flavor more rapidly than whole herbs. Here are our general guidelines:

-Whole/Cut Leaves & Flowers: 1 to 2 years
-Powdered Leaves & Flowers: 1 year
-Whole/Cut Seeds & Barks: 2 to 3 years
-Powdered Seeds & Barks: 1 year
-Whole/Cut Roots: 3 years
-Powdered Roots: 2 years

Are these herbs safe for me?

We use only the highest quality herbs we can find. Herbs are nature's medicine, and may interact with current medications you may be on. We recommend that everyone do their own research to check for drug interactions and the safety of consuming these herbs if you have certain medical conditions, as well as discussing it with your doctor or before beginning a new herbal regimen. We do not recommend our products be used by women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
