Great products, but..
February 28, 2025

You need cheaper shipping options. The product prices are great, but the cheapest shipping I think is higher than it could be? I'd order more often if shipping was cheaper.

My favorite place to buy herbs
February 27, 2025

I love the affordability, the only problem is that sometimes things I want are sold out. MBHC has helped me grow my home apothecary so I can work with new herbs.

The fastest service I've ever received.
February 27, 2025

We contacted Monterey Herb when our previous supplier failed to communicate with us about the unavailability of the spice we had ordered (the website did not display it was unavailable). At Monterey herb we placed our order and it was shipped within 2-3 hours and arrived just in time for us to continue with our plan. We really appreciated the special attention Monterey Herb treated our order with. Looking forward to future collaboration with this company.

Shipping costs are insane
February 26, 2025

It doesn't cost $14 to ship half a pound of herbs. I know because I've done it. I'd rather see higher product price than pay a lie of a shipping cost.
