Over the course of the season, you’ll experience over 18 dried herbs that can be used as teas, broths, salts, salves, spice blends and more. Each month you will receive a bundle of 5 dried herbs or herbal blends. The CSA will be accompanied by an hour and a half-long Zoom class where you’ll learn how to prepare your herbs, along with recipes and ideas to try at home.
In class you’ll have the opportunity to explore:
-Herbal Tea & Hot Cocoa Blends-Cordials, Syrups and Tinctures
-Herbal Salts, Seasoning & Broth
-DIY Salves and Soaks
-Baking with Herbs (Herbal Spice Cookies and Savory Spice Blends)

*Please note, growing and processing dried herbs involves the labor of a long harvest season, drying, and storing throughout the year. Our cost reflects the value of the herbs in addition to the educational offerings we provide.
*About BIPOC Pricing: In acknowledgment of the fatal injustices committed upon the black and brown community and the health toll this continues to take on folks, we are offering a discount to our herbal CSA for any BIPOC folk who would like it. This offering is meant to be a step we can take at Fox Haven to be an active agent in your healing and thriving, and an acknowledgment of the structures of privilege that seek to undermine that wellness.
*The Winter CSA is limited to 30 participants. If you’re interested in joining, sign up as soon as you can!
