Fennel Pollen

Fennel pollen is native to the Mediterranean and is now grown in many parts of the world including China, India and the States. The fennel plant grows wild all around the state of California, where its tiny yellow flowers are collected, dried and screened for the pollen. Pure fennel pollen from California, sometimes called the “spice of the angels”, is of the highest quality and is some of the best in the world.
