For the past almost 20 years Saskatchewan Herb and Spice Association has been serving its members and their industry - providing networking, education and marketing opportunities while making sure their voices have been heard.   SHSA has opened its doors to the country and world... welcoming all those who want to join.

SHSA started 20 years ago with a spice grower/broker, a wildcrafter and a culinary herb grower/processor.  It evolved from a focus on purely production to encompassing the whole value chain including research and development.  SHSA now supports not only those crops and products they started with but many of the new crops, products and processes as they evolve. It is now an integrated industry association with many partners across the world and throughout the value chain.  SHSA is known for its ability to "play with others"  and to partner successfully for the benefit of all.  A prime example of this is SHSA's role as the secretariat for the Canadian Herb, Spice and Natural Health Product Coalition.

The past 20 years has brought many changes to the industry making the world aware that yes we do grow, collect, process and sell spices, botanicals and much more.

SHSA has taken a lead role in adding value by developing voluntary tools for quality, traceability and safety.

SHSA has been a leader from day one in health of the plants they grow, collect and sell, in helping define and showcase the impact of consuming these healthy products and has supported the health of the communities that develop them.
