Our Dill & Parsley are grown organically by a cooperative of farmers in the Fayoum Oasis in central Egypt, where the fields are irrigated with an ancient system of canals that diverts the runoff from the Nile. The herbs grow big in the hot sun and the leaves are clipped and dried at their peak. Use this balanced blend as a rub on roasted or grilled seafood or chicken, in soups or on a fresh cucumber or tomato salad.

SOURCING

Sourcing image

Our dill and parsley are sourced from an organic farm in central Egypt, where ancient canal systems divert the Nile’s waters to irrigate the fields. We connected with the farmers through our partnership with Zaid of Norwich Meadows Farm. Every year, Zaid works with a crew of highly skilled Egyptian farmers who come to his farm in upstate New York to grow organic vegetables using a specific system of high tunnels and intercropping. The vegetables that Zaid grows with this group of farmers are stunning, and these same farmers have their own farms in Egypt, where they grow ancient varietals of desert-adapted spices that rely on seasonal flooding from the Nile River as the primary source of water. Their farms produce these and our other Egyptian spices.
