As part of our fundraising efforts , the Madison Herb Society members create a variety of herbal products to sell at our Annual Herb Fair each November at Olbrich Botanical Garden, and at the Garden Expo each February at the Alliant Energy Center.

Some of our dry-good products include: Wisconsin Herb Blend - our most popular herb blend; custom blended herbal teas; soup and chili mixes; muffin, bread, cake and scone mixes; salad dressing mixes; pretzel mix, and much more.

New Madison Herb Society Cookbooks

At our 2007 Herb Fair, we introduced a brand new cookbook, "Savoring the Herbal Flavors of Provence," and reintroduced our updated lavender cookbook, "Lavender in Your Kitchen and Throughout Your Home."

To order these two cookbooks, or any of our other cookbooks, download the Cookbook Order Form and send your order in with a check or money order. Our cookbooks make wonderful gifts for the cooks or gardeners in your life, as well as a gift just for yourself!
