Herb Box Course

You may have heard of an organic veg box? A herb box is a twist on the conventional veg box. Each month throughout the growing season you will receive a box of goodies including information about the herbs and how to use them. It’s a great way to learn about herbs and build a stock of herbal medicine for the home. 

Obtain High Quality Herbs

  • Herbs in your box are grown or wild crafted on a small scale in the remote and untouched West Highlands, many of which you can’t buy in shops.
  • Have these processed into useful medicinal products by a qualified and experienced medical herbalist.
  • Build up a home herbal medicine chest.
  • Learn how to use your herbs for common minor health conditions.
  • You get all this at the same time as supporting ethical cultivation practices and a thriving horticultural volunteer scheme.

Cost and Payment

The cost of the 3 month crop share is £90. This includes postage and packaging. You can pay for your herb box upfront or in monthly instalments by prior arrangement. There are only 10 places available on each 3 month block of this scheme and the herb box must be delivered to a UK address. Please book early to avoid disappointment.

How it works

You sign up for a share of the herbal harvest for a period of three months. Each month you will receive a parcel in the post containing the following:
1 x packet of dried herbs (either flowers, foliage, roots or fruits)
1 x 100ml bottle of tincture, infused oil, herbal vinegar, syrup, herbal glycerine, cough medicine or tonic
1 x 30ml jar of ointment, balm or cream
Full instructions on how the herbs can be used, stored and when they should be avoided.
UK Postage is included and the package will be mailed to you on the first Monday of each month.

What next?

At the end of the three month trial period you may choose to purchase another three months during which you will be receiving a different range of herbal products, in line with seasonal production for each quarter. This scheme also makes a unique gift for someone special. We are hoping to launch the scheme in 2019 but are taking bookings now.
