Midsummer's Harvest 

Spice Blends

Enhancing the flavors of your meals with herbs and spices is the simplest and most accessible form of herbal wellness. The simple act of adding a spice or herb to a meal increases the nutrients and healing properties of any food.
Most of the herbs and spices you find at the grocery store have already lost much of their potency. Green herbs begin to lose their nutrients after 1 year from the time they were dried. Red, brown, and yellow spices begin to lose their nutrients after two year from the time they were dried. Herbs and spices that have been ground will lose their nutrients faster than whole leaves, berries, and roots. 
Midsummer’s Harvest herb and spice blends are made with the freshest possible organic ingredients in order to ensure the longevity of the blends nutrients and flavor. 
May the path of herbal healing begin in the kitchen as it has throughout time.
