Basil

The ultimate summer herb. Fresh pesto, caprese salad, pizza, pasta, cocktails... need I say more?


Flavor & Preparation

A sweet and fragrant classic, this herb is a pillar of Italian cuisine. We grow a variety with a mild flavor, that eats well both raw and cooked into dishes and sauces.

Most people are familiar with it in pesto and on pizza, but recently it has shown up in cocktails and even fresh salads. You can even use it in iced tea for a fresh twist.
