Thyme is a good old-fashioned English herb, it's been used in cooking since medieval thymes (apologies!) & is even thought to have been used by the Egyptians. It makes perfect sense for Abel & Cole to offer Crazy Jack organic products because sustainability is the core of the Crazy Jack philosophy. Back in the 1970's, wholefoods were seen as a fad…natural food was seen as 'alternative'! So Crazy Jack persevered, & is still sourcing food grown in a manner that is not damaging to the environment or potentially harmful to humans.
