Grow your own heirloom herb garden

Are you really a foodie if you don't have an heirloom herb garden within easy reach of the kitchen? Keep these 75 heirloom herb seeds close at hand to enhance your kitchen and medicine cabinet.

Heirloom seeds come from heirloom plants that were bred at least fifty years ago. Heirloom cultivars can be vegetables and fruits, or ornamental flowers and plants. Heirlooms are as diverse as the places and the families that they come from, but heirloom seeds are always open-pollinated, meaning that heirloom plants are always pollinated the natural way, and will always produce viable seeds. Heirloom seeds are always non-GMO and often organic, making heirloom varieties the safest seeds for you and your family to use and consume.

You could buy standard herb seeds, but why not impress your family and friends with your collection of lesser-known and wonderful homegrown heirloom herbs? Try growing Genovese Basil to enhance your signature Italian dishes, like marinara sauce and pesto.

Heirloom herbs for culinary and medicinal use

Heirloom herb seeds carry more than just a notable name—many heirloom herbs are more flavorful and nutritious than hybrid or non-heirloom types. Some heirloom herb varieties have intermediate disease resistance and are more tolerant to hot, dry conditions than their standard counterparts. Longstanding Organic Cilantro/Coriander is a prime example of an herb that has been improved through open pollination and careful breeding to be much slower to bolt than other types of cilantro.

Or maybe you’re interested in planting a tea garden this year—what better herb to include than heirloom varieties! For chamomile, choose between Roman or German types. You’d also be foolish to not consider growing Lemon Balm, an heirloom cultivar of the mint family that brings citrusy taste to dishes and drinks.

Some of our collection of heirloom herb seed varieties are also grown, harvested, and processed according to the USDA’s strict organic standards. Here at Eden Brothers, we’re always looking to get more of our customers’ favorite seeds certified organic, because we know how important personal health—and the health of the environment—is to you and yours.
