Organic herbs and spices

Photo: Organic herbs Herbs have relatively large surface areas, all the better to absorb with! Most conventional herbs and spices are irradiated and farmed with the use of pesticides that are present in quantities that you don't want to think about. Fortunately, organic herbs and spices are not irradiated, are produced to strict organic farming standards and are available in most supermarkets and from a growing band of, well..... growers.

If you have an organic garden then by buying suitable herbs you can ensure a plentiful and cheap supply of your favourite organic herbs. You'll also discover the damage that a single greedy slug can wreak in one night! Suitable herbs can come to mean 'the ones slugs don't like'.
