It was a brilliant offering for spring, when I'm trying to get a first round of basil started on a germination mat under lights. And for $2.48, it seemed like a excellent exchange of dollars for value.

| hydroponically-grown fresh basil |
These herbs were produced by a Georgia hydroponic grower, who can certainly be considered regional, if not local.
Basil can obviously be easily grown here in the Southeast in spring, in hoop-houses, whether hydroponic or not, pushing the season at a reasonable price. I hope more folks start doing this.
