We care about the environment
Harvesting wild herbs from nature has significant long-term negative effects on the conservation of Greek flora and biodiversity, putting many of the widely used herbs at risk of extinction.
For the preservation of local genotypes Aegean Organics cultivates:
~ the local oregano subspecies Origanum vulgare hirtum in thiol chemical form,
~ the local subspecies of sage Salvia triloba &
~ the local subspecies of Thymus capitatus,
thus ensuring their global conservation.
