Meet our newest co-op

The Las Vegas Herb Co-Operative is a group of local herb and health enthusiasts who places monthly orders with Mountain Rose Herbs in Oregon (http://www.mountainroseherbs.com) and obtains the freshest herbs at the best prices possible.


LVHC is a community organization that was founded by Nicole Carter, Master Herbalist, in 2005 for herbalists to obtain organic herbs and herbal products at reasonable prices. Viveca Alldridge is now the organizer.


LVHC offers bulk herbs, teas, spices and herbal supplies at great discounts. This community group offers free membership, flat rate shipping costs and discounts based on volume. We get 15% off all products. Bulk herbs ordered in pound increments can get a discount of 15%, 20%, 30% or 40% based on the total amount of 1-lb bulk herbs ordered by LVHC that month. Bulk herbs ordered in less than 1-lb increments are discounted at 15%. Below is the bulk herb discount breakdown.

5-24 lbs - 15%

25-49 lbs - 20%

50-99 lbs - 30%

100+ lbs - 40%

Please have your order on the spreadsheet by 9:00am on the 4th of the month. Orders will be totaled and you will be notified of your total due. Please be sure to add your best contact info (email, text or phone) to the spreadsheet. You'll have 24hours to paypal the amount due. I will then update the spreadsheet to reflect the discount on 1-lb bulk herbs and if anything is out of stock. Orders are usually ready to be picked up about 7 to 10 days later. There are three pickup locations with possibility of more as the co-op grows.


Amy's – Sahara & Maryland

Viveca's – Blue Diamond & Rainbow

Nicole's – Silverado Area


We use a google documents spreadsheet that can be accessed through our gmail account. If you need this log-in, e-mail us Contact Us Page. NOTE: If you have a gmail account then share the document with yourself so you don't have to log in and out.

Payment can be issued to Viveca Alldridge at paypal at: avgardens@cox.net

Hi! I'm Christine and will be working on the Las Vegas Herb Co-Op to get it back up and running strong. If you are interested in herbs/natural living/yoga, there will be an Ice Cream Social this Saturday at my home to introduce myself and talk about the Co-Op and other natural products that I'm making as a result of what I've learned through the Co-Op. If you'd like to attend, please email me at KEEPITREALLV@ME.COM for directions.
3PM, This Saturday, JUNE 18th, Pecos/Sunset area of the Las Vegas Valley.

Please join us for some tasty treats and to talk about how the LVHC can grow and prosper! Hope to see you!

Learn how to garden in your Las Vegas Yard
Tuesday evening, August 2nd.
7pm - 8:30pm.
Julie's house, Private residence near Arbor View High school

We have a member who has offered to host our next meeting and discuss how she built her raised planter beds, irrigation set up, etc. Julie's house is in the vicinity of Arbor View H.S., in the NW part of the valley.
We're trying a weeknight to see if it's easier for people to attend. Hopefully this is true for most of you!

Please RSVP to Keepitreallv@me.com and I'll send you the house address and gate code.

You can choose to bring a dish to share, or just show up and meet other like minded folks and learn about how easy it is to garden, even in your desert yard.
Please share this with anyone who you think will be interested in the Las Vegas Herb Co Op.
