Great service and wonderful product!
They give great service too!
I've been buying my herbs from them for 2 yrs now! I infuse them in everything. I'm helping alot of people heal NATURALLY!
We have been ordering from Monterey Bay Herb Co since 2021. We have always received our orders quickly, packages are done well.
When my usual sources haven't had lobelia in for many months, I came here and they had it.
This is my first experience with you so I have no idea how the herbs will be, but so far the experience has been great! You had the herb I needed in stock, when none of my other sources had it!
No issues, smooth process, great taste and I will return for more products in the very near future.
Maybe eventually, we will find a way to package in something other than plastic
Very satisfied with what I ordered, good quality bulk herbs and spices, organic options
The ordering process was easy, and the product was delivered in good time.
It was frustrating getting thru all the hoops in check out, creating account/password, PayPal check out and figuring out why it wasn't working. Had to update addresses in account
We've been ordering bulk herbs from Monterey Herb Company for some time now, and they consistently exceed our expectations. The quality is always top-notch—fresh, fragrant, and exactly what we need for our products. Their prices are excellent for the value, and the shipping is incredibly fast and reliable. It's a pleasure doing business with a company that delivers both great products and great service. Highly recommend!
Website is easy to use and you have a great selection of herbs and spices
I am delighted to have found you. I do not have a business but I teach local people how to make natural healing remedies and enjoy better health, particularly an Amish community near us.
I've ordered from Monterey Bay Herb Co. For several years, might be close to a decade by now, and I've never had a problem. The herbs always arrive on time, the prices are better than any company I've previously used, shipping rates are reasonable, and customer service is top notch (and I worked in customer service for 30+ years). The selection is great, and, if needed, they will email you when an item is back in stock. The herbs are well labeled, including genus and species, arrive in resealable pouches, and fill the room with aroma when opened. They are fresh and good quality herbs. The website also offers brewing temperatures and times for the teas they sell. I cannot say enough good things about this product, the company and the staff.
Hi there, Elaine! Thank you so much for taking the time to write this review — and for nearly a decade of trust in us. Hearing praise from someone with 30+ years in customer service means a lot; it lets us know we’re on the right path. We’re happy the little touches like clear labeling, resealable pouches, restock updates, and brewing tips add something extra for you. Here’s to many more fragrant, fresh batches headed your way! 🌿✨🍵
Monterey Bay Herb Co. Has become my "go to" source for herbs spices and teas. The product is well sourced and the dried goods have always been aromatic and colorful. Some items are out of stock when out of season, but I've not run into many. The prices are reasonable or lower than any other company I've tried in the last 25 years. The orders ship quickly. Everything I'm looking for in a distributor. Thank you!
Delivery is quick, product is fresh. Love my experience in shopping, even when out of stock it is filled quickly
I am extremely pleased with this product. Fresh and full of color.
Easy to find product and place order
Like the product shipping is ridiculous@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
This place always takes great care of us. They have excellent shipping speed. We can always count on them.
Love your products and how easy it is to order. I am looking forward to making my own tea blends.
I've been getting this slippery elm bark for my horse who gets ulcers. The service and the product are great and seem to really work on keeping away the ulcers.
Great service and super herbs. Best quality of herbs i have found.
Super products and service and always have my favorite herbs and teas.
Service has always been good and products are great. The website acts up once in a while... it asks if I am a robot
Herb Co is the best place to do business with! The Herbs and Spice are always fresh and to our customers liking!
I keep ordering! So that means we love the products from Herb Co
