General Information: Herbs will be judged using the same general criteria used for vegetables. Those grown mainly for their seed, such as dill and caraway, should be exhibited on a plate. Those grown for their leaves such as basil, parsley, etc. should be exhibited in a clear glass container of water (no plastic containers at State Fair). Any exhibit not in a clear glass container will be lowered one ribbon placing. No screw on lids or screw on rings and flats may be used. To hold herbs in place, it is suggested to use tin foil or a type of plastic wrap with holes poked into it or frog lids. Containers may not be returned from State Fair. Potted herb plants will be disqualified and will not be judged. Score Sheet SF108.
