Smith & Truslow Organic Oregano is USDA certified organic and third-party tested for heavy metals — delivering the bold, earthy, slightly peppery Mediterranean herb flavor that makes oregano one of the most essential and beloved herbs in kitchens around the world.
Our organic oregano is sourced from the finest oregano-growing regions and carefully dried and ground fresh to preserve its essential oils, deep green color, and signature robust aroma. Whether you're seasoning a homemade pizza, building a classic marinara sauce, finishing a Greek salad, flavoring a slow-cooked lamb dish, or blending a custom Italian seasoning mix, Smith & Truslow organic oregano delivers a depth, freshness, and aromatic intensity that dried grocery store oregano simply can't match.
Why Fresh-Dried Organic Oregano Makes All the Difference
Oregano is one of the herbs most dramatically affected by age and improper storage. Conventional oregano sitting on grocery store shelves for months — or years — loses its essential oils, fades to a dull brownish-green, and delivers little more than a vague herbal note with none of the bold, resinous punch that makes great oregano so transformative. Smith & Truslow organic oregano is sourced fresh, carefully dried to preserve its volatile oils, and stored in airtight glass jars that protect its color, aroma, and potency from light and air. Open a jar and the difference is immediately apparent — vibrant green color, intense Mediterranean aroma, and a flavor that holds up through long cooking times.
Why Our Organic Oregano Is Different
Most conventional oregano is grown with synthetic pesticides, irradiated to extend shelf life, and processed with anticaking agents. Some cheaper brands even blend oregano with stems, seeds, and fillers to increase volume. Not ours. Every lot of Smith & Truslow organic oregano is made from 100% certified organic oregano leaves with nothing added — no fillers, no stems, no anticaking agents, no irradiation — and tested by an accredited third-party lab against heavy metal specifications more stringent than industry standards. Pure oregano. Nothing hidden.

Storage and Shelf Life
Storage and Shelf Life
Storage: To maximize freshness, store in a dark airtight container in a cool dry place. Once the spice is ground, flavor deteriorates with exposure to light, heat, air, humidity and time. Here are rules of thumb about the shelf life of spices and herbs >
NOTE: The plastic refill bags are not intended for long-term storage of your spices. Due to the porous nature of plastic, the essential oils that are released when a spice is ground, may react with the plastic and/or labelling inks over time.
Refill bags contain the same amount of spice as in our small glass jars. When they arrive, simply snip the corner of your bag, refill your original Smith & Truslow spice jar, apply the new label, and recycle the bag.
