Our Organic Thyme seeds are USDA-certified!

The leaves of this herb have a marked but agreeable aroma and intense flavornoted for attracting bees.

Thyme has diverse uses, thanks to its sweetly fragrant, lemony scent and its medicinal properties. Thyme is used fresh or dried, often for seasoning clam chowder and other fish soups. Thyme seeds usually take eight to twenty days to germinate under proper conditions.

Thyme is an easy-to-grow, year-round herb with a wide range of uses. Use fresh leaves for culinary purposes, or dry them and store them for later use. It's an easy, flavorful addition to any dish.
