This publication looks at marketing channels for and assesses the economics of small-scale organic production of fresh-cut herbs. Certified organic production differs from conventional methods chiefly
in fertility management and pest control. Propagation methods differ for annuals and perennials. For
information on producing potted herb plants, see the ATTRA publications Sustainable Small-scale Nursery Production and Plug and Transplant Production for Organic Systems.
