I began learning about and working with garden plants and herbs in the late 1970's. My first education came from a program called Meals for Millions and its focus was on heirloom gardening in the desert. Their I began to learn of the importance of seed, seed heritage preservation and uses of plants. As an eater, what began as research into the use of herbs and spices for my personal health and culinary needs, became a life-long passion. I have an ever increasing appreciation for plants; their physical beauty, diverse scents, their flavors and taste, as well as their nutritional and health benefits. Each plant used for food and health plays unique roles within our bodies as they work to support, nurture and heal. |

Organic food is produced by farmers who emphasize the use of renewable resources and the conservation of soil and water to enhance environmental quality for future generations. Organic meat, poultry, eggs, and dairy products come from animals that are given no antibiotics or growth hormones (and ideally raides on the pasture). Organic food is produced without using most conventional pesticides; fertilizers made with synthetic ingredients or sewage sludge; bioengineering; or ionizing radiation. Before a product can be labeled 'organic,' a Government-approved certifier inspects the farm where the food is grown to make sure the farmer is following all the rules necessary to meet USDA organic standards. Companies that handle or process organic food before it gets to your local supermarket or restaurant must be certified, too. -------Extracted from USDA.GOVM Quilter's Comfort also uses organically sourced and sometimes wildcrafted herbs and spices that are grown using organic and permaculture principles. When possible, we source locally. Some plants people grow using biodynamic methods and understandings in bring their product to the table. |

We keep our teas loose because they provide us with a much fresher product, far better taste and because they retain more of their volatile oils have increased health benefits. Tea experts agree, that loose teas have the best flavors because the leaves expand and release their full qualities. When you chop herbs into very small pieces the beneficial essential oils present on the herbs are destroys. Because Quilter's Comfort's herbs are full of wonderful flavors, do not overfill your tea ball or strainer. All Quilter's

Bring water to boil in stainless steel pot. Pour one cup of steaming hot water over 1 teaspoon of tea using a French press, tea ball or basket, or loose in a cup or pot. (When using loose herbs in a cup, we enjoy using a Bombia (drinking straw). Steep covered 3-5 minutes for general use. For added therapeutic value, steep 10-20 minutes. We enjoy the tea as is, or with a bit of honey or stevia. |

To preserve the quality of your teas store them in airtight containers, preferably in a container that blocks out light which damages levels of essential ingredients, which impacts on nutrition and flavor. Tins are really nice, but if you do not have them use glass. When storing tea and other herbs in glass, be sure to store them in a cool dark cupboard or shelf or inside of a drawer. If you enjoy decorating, you can paint your jars to enhance your home and help preserve quality, and a few coins. Of course, keep all of your teas, herbs and spices away from the heat of your stove. |
