Looking for dried or fresh whole herbs

I am looking for inexpensive whole herbs on-line for making tinctures. Does anyone know any good resources?

I've bought from Mountain Rose Herbs before and will again. They stock all organic herbs, solid prices too. I even buy my cooking spices from them in bulk. Shipping seems to usually be a bit expensive, so I tend to order a lot at once.

Thank you

Check out Herbalcom or I-Herb.  Good quality and prices.  Best to ship in cooler months as the really hot summer days, esp. in the back of a freight truck can get those temps rather high and might detract from the quality of the herbs.  On a 80 degree day I think I read somewhere that it can get it to 140 degrees in the back of an unrefrigerated panel truck. 

Here's where I shop all the time...I know her personally:

I was going to recommend Mountain Rose Herbs also.  But I started wondering what you mean by "whole" herbs? 

And I have to ask, coz I'm nosey, why do you not grow your own?

Well I am joining the air force so I wont have a permanent residence for awhile, but I also wanted to get herbs for tinctures. Until I get a place of my own I won't be growing, until then. But I would like to grow as many medicinal plants as I can when I do get some land.

What i meant by whole was, dried, but not all chopped up into little pieces, but rather in its whole state.

Are the two biggest herb wholesalers in the US. Starwest bought up Trinity and I think Pacific Botanicals. They used to be good.

If you're looking for portions smaller than a pound (or not)
