** CANNOT BE SHIPPED OUT OF CANADA **
Only available between July and November every year.
A true Quebec heritage treasure, Saint-Anne shallots is a perennial alliaceae. It effortlessly survives our Quebec winters, well-tucked under the snow cover.
It starts growing very early in the spring, and can be eaten at that point as green onions. Afterwards, it starts multiplying and the leaves begin to dry out. It should be harvested on June 24th, on Saint-Jean-Baptiste Day. Then it should be left to dry completely indoors, in order to eat it as much as to replant it on Saint-Anne Day, on July 26th. It will start growing again and storing energy for the winter. When spring returns, it all starts again!

Package: 6 to 8 small shallots from the spring. Due to the risks of mail shipping, we prefer to send them early in the spring, when they still germinate easily. They must be planted as soon as received, either indoors in pots or outdoors if it is later than mid-May.

This herb is commonly used in Acadian traditional cooking. It should therefore not be a surprised that, through time, they developed their own summer savory variety.
The first records of 'Ancienne d'Acadie' summer savory go back to Mr. Jean Prudent Robichaud in Burnt Churchill, Nouveau-Brunswick, at the end of the 19th Century. He received the seeds from a local indigenous woman. His family then grew the plant over several generations.
Given that this variety has had to adapt to the harsh and windy Eastern Canadian climate, it became stockier and hardier than common summer savory. The flavor is also more distinct.
