Can someone say Basil?

The best basil comes from environments that have hot days and cold nights. During the day, the plants oils are released and at night they condense.

This leads to exceptional flavor and aroma. Yum!

We harvest to order, with roots attached, so all you have to do is put the roots in some water and your basil remains fresh until you're ready to use it.
