As promised:

Placed an order with http://www.herbalcom.com -
6 - 1 lb. items (they do not charge shipping, just $6.25 handling for whatever size order)

Placed order Saturday Jan. 2 (order confirmed by email)
They charged credit card Wed. Jan. 6
Received package Monday Jan. 11

Considering Holiday season backups and weekends, I would say they pretty much delivered on schedule.

Items I ordered were both usual and unusual types and they shipped the order complete!

All items were bulk packed in twist tie closed blue bags and were exactly the product and cut I ordered.

Oh, since we mentioned this before, 1 lb. of bay leaves is a bag 10” X 10” X 6” packed tight. ($4.45 - hard to beat price!)Will be liberally adding them to stored items.

I’m gonna be placing lots of orders from them, based on performance so far! Now I’ll just be divvying it up among family.

So, based on this first order, I give them a TWO THUMBS UP!

Only thing I would change is to have them send you the UPS tracking # automatically, but I can certainly live without that.

Thanks for update on herbal.com. I have been through their list and written down all the herbs I use and any I would like to try. Will be checking with other relatives for any they would like to share and placing an order. Thanks again. As I continually state, “isn’t this survival site wonderful?”

I am so glad the company is a good one, that gives us two that we can depend on, for I have had nothing but good results on my orders to http://www.waltonfeed.com for storage and every day food supplies.

And our good seed suppliers, nice to know where to turn for supplies.

If I take up cooking again, I will need all new spices, as mine are going past the useful dates.

Thanks for the update.

It sounds like you found a good place to order from. I will have to check it out. I’m trying to get back into the swing of things after Christmas and taking care of my mom. I picked up an enamel canning pot at Goodwill the other day to take to my daughter. Today I bought a bunch of chicken breasts (not boneless skinless) at our grocery store for $1/lb. I am going to try my hand at canning them. I’ll have to figure out how to cook them enough to get the bones off, but not too much before canning. I was hoping to get the Ball Blue Canning book for Christmas, but ended up with 2 Back to Eden books instead.
