Origanum Vulgare is an excellent addition to salads, red and white meats and fish.
It is a staple herb for much of the Mediterranean and middle east.
It is an aromatic herb with a slightly bitter taste and a member of the mint family.
It is native to the country of Greece and you can find it growing in the wild almost everywhere.
Ideally it should be farmed approximately 400m above sea level. 85% of Greece is mountainous so this is an elevation that is common and our farms are very close to that elevation.
It has been known for its medicinal qualities for thousands of years. People in the countryside still use it today for those very reasons.
It is reported to help as an anti-inflammatory against arthritis, rheumatism, high blood pressure, intestinal and abdominal pain, asthma and migraines.
