Description

Life can be disruptive and baffling at times but we hope you make space in your everyday to experience joy. With an herbaceous-green and dry aroma, Sweet Marjoram’s name means “joy of the mountains.” It is refreshing and alluring and helps revitalize the body.

The Ancient Greeks planted Sweet Marjoram on grave sites because they believe it would bring peace to the dead. Native to the Mediterranean, Sweet Marjoram is a bushy perennial herb with hairy leaves that is cultivated throughout Europe. The flowering tops and leaves are steam distilled to extract the essential oil.
