| General Herb Care |  | | 
| - Keep all dried herbs and herbal preparations in a cool, dry place. Heat and moisture can cause mold and break down the medicinal and culinary properties.
- Keep all dried herbs and herbal preparations out of the light. Light breaks herbs and their medicinal and culinary properties down.
- Prepare herbs and herbal preparations in glass containers, or stainless steel..........NO aluminum
- Store herbs and herbal preparations in air-tight glass containers, or stainless steel (not plastic and definately not aluminum if you can help it. If you find your dried herbs growing mold when you store them in air-tight glass containers, try storing the next batch in paper lunchbags.
- Try to keep herbs and herbal preparations from being in contact with metal.
- Use common sense; if it's moldy, don't use it; if it's faded or discolored, don't take chances; and if you don't know, ask an herbalist.
