Orange Balm (2oz clamshell)

Grown just outside Denton, this Orange Balm comes from Ladybug Lane Veggies’ thoughtfully managed quarter-acre garden, harvested fresh for the week and handled with care.

What makes it different

Orange Balm is a fragrant member of the mint family known for its soft citrus aroma, delicate flavor, and calming herbal qualities.

The leaves carry gentle notes of orange and lemon with a light floral finish that works beautifully in teas, infused water, cocktails, desserts, fruit dishes, and fresh herb blends.

It’s the kind of herb that instantly makes a kitchen smell better the second you start working with it.

Ladybug Lane grows using Earth-friendly, sustainable practices that prioritize living soil and ecosystem balance over speed or volume. When herbs are grown with that kind of care, you can smell it the second you open the bunch.

How we love to use it at home

• Steeped fresh into tea or iced herbal drinks
• Muddled into cocktails, mocktails, or sparkling waterAdded to fruit salads, citrus
• desserts, or yogurt bowls
• Blended into simple syrups or honey infusions
• Tucked into herb bundles or fresh summer centerpiecesScattered into green
• salads for a subtle citrusy lift

This is one of those herbs that feels both useful and a little magical.

Storage & freshness tips

Treat it like a bouquet: trim the stems and place in a glass of water on the counter or refrigerate loosely wrapped in a damp towel.

For best flavor and aroma, use within 3–5 days.

Extra leaves can be dried for tea, infused into honey or syrups, or frozen into ice cubes for drinks later on.

A gentle note on practices

Ladybug Lane Veggies isn’t certified organic by choice. Instead of investing in certification, Natalie invests directly in sustainable, Earth-friendly farming practices that go beyond the baseline and focus on long-term ecosystem health.
