In difficulty, oregano ranks with other woody herbs like basil, rosemary, and thyme. It takes a bit more care than one-harvest crops like lettuce, needs dry periods in irrigation, and thoughtful pruning. Personally, I think of oregano like the caviar of herbs; it’s incredibly tasty, often gets higher pricing, and it’s worth the work.
Once harvested, fresh oregano sprigs have a shelf-life of 1-3 weeks. Be careful of over-chilling or excessive moisture on the foliage. Upstart Farmers like Haydn Christensen at Bayberry Fresh are packaging their oregano in clamshells for sale at groceries and farmer’s markets.
