• Uses in Cuisine: Slice for caprese salads, roast for sauces, or enjoy raw for their unique salty-sweet flavor.

• Companion Benefits: Tomatoes thrive when paired with basil and oregano, which repel pests and improve pollination.

• Growing Notes: Indeterminate variety. Excellent yields all season long.

🌿 Basil – The Flavor Booster & Garden Guardian

Basil isn’t just a kitchen staple, it’s a natural protector. The aromatic oils in its leaves deter whiteflies, mosquitoes, and tomato hornworms. In the garden, basil is believed to improve the flavor of tomatoes growing nearby, making it both practical and delicious.

Thai Basil (Ocimum basilicum var. thyrsiflora) – 50+ Seeds

• Flavor Profile: Sweet, spicy, and aromatic with distinct anise and clove undertones.

Lime Basil (Ocimum americanum) – 50+ Seeds

• Growing Notes: Heat-loving annual. Pinch flowers to extend leafy growth.

🌱 Oregano – The Hardy Groundcover & Aromatic Protector

Oregano thrives under the sun and doubles as a soil protector, conserving moisture while filling the air with savory Mediterranean aroma. Its strong scent deters pests, while its dense growth suppresses weeds and shelters beneficial insects.

Greek Oregano (Origanum vulgare subsp. hirtum) – 200+ Seeds

• Flavor Profile: Bold, earthy, and peppery, the strongest and most authentic oregano flavor for Mediterranean cooking.

Common Oregano (Origanum vulgare) – 250+ Seeds
