Herb

of the year

International herb association

Ginger has been named the International Herb Association's herb of the year! Ginger's peppery, sweet taste is a historically influential herb with use in both savory dishes and baked goods alike! Native to humid, tropical forests in Southeast Asia, ginger thrives best in USDA Plant Hardiness Zones 9 to 12. For growth in Missouri, site in a sunny spot just shy of full sun to avoid foliage with brown tips and/or poor growth.

Despite its widespread use, ginger is unavailable for purchase by growers regionally this season! Click below to learn more about ginger from the International Herb Association!
