Even a wounded world is feeding us.
Even a wounded world holds us, giving us moments of wonder and joy.
I choose joy over despair.
Not because I have my head in the sand,
but because joy is what the earth gives me daily, and I must return the gift.
~Robin Wall Kimmerer
 
Greetings beloved Community,
 
May 2024 offer the blessing of peace, within and without.
May it be so.
 
We are pleased and excited to announce that our opening day for the 2024 season will be Tuesday, March 12th!
 
We are excepting pre-orders for the 2024 season at this time.
SCHE operates on a 1st request, 1st provide basis.

So herbs are offered in the order in which they have been received.

If you have not yet placed your pre-order for the2024 season, placing a pre-order is a very good way to make sure you get the herbs you want in your medicine chest for the 2024 season.
You are welcome to update your list throughout the season.
Updates are noted by the date(s) they are received.

 

We ask a minimum of 1/2 lb per fresh herb request.
Please list your herbs in alphabetical order by common name, and if you know the botanical name, please include that for the sake of clarity. Include part you are looking for (herb, leaf, root, berry, herb, bark, etcetera), the amount you want of each, and whether you want fresh or dried.
Parts offered for each herb are noted on the prices lists.
EXAMPLE:
1 lb Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) ROOT Fresh
3 lbs Calendula (Calendula officinalis)  ORANGE FLOWER Dried
2.5 lbs Milky oats (Avena sativa) MILKY TOPS Fresh
3 lbs Turmeric (Cucurma longa)  RHIZOME Fresh

Please note that dried herbs are offered as available.

We are asking all buyers to support the overseeing non-profit entity, by becoming a member of The Sonoma County Herb Association. If the SCHA goes away, so does the Sonoma County Herb Exchange.

We can tack that on to your first invoice.
You can also join here:  https://www.sonomaherbs.org/membership
If you have questions about your membership status, shoot us an email and we’ll let you know.
Your support is noteworthy and appreciated.

We have a couple of intern positions available.
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 further conversation about details and perks.

We don’t sell, nor share contact information. Nope, not ever.
 
                           May we be brave enough to stay sensitive to the collective pain
                                          without turning numb or cynical.
                                                   ~J. Krishnamurti
 
Because hope owns a pair of boots.
For our collective well-being.

In community,
