Are you selling fennel foliage for herbal use? I love fennel bulbs and wondered if the foliage could be used for culinary purposes as well.

16.00 a pound for all traditional herbs around here.  From what I am seeing though transportation is either going to allow us to charge more or actually undercut which is fantastic.

 

When we get into things like Fennel, Cumin, and Spiceberries then we are selling at nearly double that.  Horseradish (Herb of the ear) goes for about 16.00 a pound as well.  More at market if we have enough, normally we bulk it out to a couple local producers who get a better price at volume.

Anyone have a suggested price for organic flat parsley and thyme? Strictly small scale, selling to a restaurant, though would be interested in retail price as well.
