Start a Herb Garden Home Business
Start a Herb Garden Home Business
It seems that the herb business is a growth business these days.
In an ever increasing effort to find the next health food to
satisfy the pallet of the American population, herbs have been
receiving a lot of attention from the media. Numerous articles
are being churned out daily touting the health benefits of
herbs. This is a real winner, aside from the reported health
benefits, herbs also add to the taste of bland foods such as
potatoes, rice and vegetables.
So what does this mean to a stay at home mother with kids? A new
item to purchase on the next grocery trip, or can there be more?
The answer is that there most definitely can and is more to
this. Moms at home can now turn this opportunity into a small
thriving business if implemented correctly.
How can moms implement this home-based herb business at home?
Here are a few steps that should be taken to ensure success.
Who will your customers be? The most popular options are in the
local neighborhood. Contact your local grocers produce manager
and then the local restaurant manager. The key question is not
asking them if they want to buy from you, we know they need
herbs, but rather ask them which herbs they need?
Before venturing out stop by the local library if you are not
familiar with herbs and study up on how herbs grow, what are
their scientific names, what is the
growing season, how much
yield can you expect from each plant? Bottom line - do your
homework. Don't let them trip you up with a simple question.
They will not ask a complicated question.
Study up on these herbs; * Basil * French Tarragon * Peppermint
* Oregano * Sweet Marjoram * Rosemary * French Sorrel * Dill *
Chives * Parsley * Thyme * Sage
Find out what the current wholesale prices are for these herbs.
You can find this data through a subscription to
Todaymarket.com. The subscription rate is $25/month but they do
have a 7-day free service that you can test out. Otherwise you
will need to work with the local grocer to find out what he is
willing to pay. If you have a good reliable service he will work
with you.
Decide on your packaging and labeling. Packaging and custom
labels can be cost effective when purchased in bulk, but first
find out if you will have any orders before purchasing supplies.
You can design and make you own initial packaging for
presentation purposes with the help of a local arts and crafts
store.
