About Gourmet Herbs
Jane Vassallo founded Gourmet Herbs in 2003. A fourth-generation farmer, Vassallo inherited her family's love for life on the farm. In the early 1990s, she moved from the lowlands of the Hawkesbury to establish a new farm on higher ground, paving the way for what later became Gourmet Herbs. Originally focused on growing fancy lettuces, Vassallo soon pivoted to meet a niche demand from contemporary Sydney restauranteurs for microherbs and edible flowers.
