General Guidelines for Storing Dried Herbs
No matter the herb, a few golden rules apply to storing dried botanicals:
Keep them out of direct light – Sunlight degrades volatile oils and fades color.
Use airtight containers – To prevent moisture and air exposure.
Store in a cool, dry place – Avoid humid kitchens or bathrooms.
Label everything – Include common name, botanical name (if you know it)
Glass jars (like mason jars) with tight-fitting lids are ideal. For long-term storage or sensitive herbs, consider tinted amber or cobalt blue jars to block light. You can also use paper bags, tins, or compostable pouches—just make sure they’re stored in a dry, dark space.
