Fresh Turmeric is an herbal medicinal grown on Adaptations Farm on the mountainside of Kona, Hawaii. Formally organic,now grown the same way but no longer being certified due to certification agency changing hands raising prices and lowering understanding of the farm. Have been certified for 40 yrs, sad to have to let it go
Shipping costs also went up so 1# or 5# cost $40 to ship. For that reason 1# orders have been discontinued. Turmeric is now available in 5# boxes
