| I want to take some fresh basil to work to share with my co-workers. Is it ok to just put some leaves in a baggie? I don't want it to be moldy or stinky when they open the bag. (I'm thinking of individual bags for each person). |

| Why don't you arrange the basil stems in a vase with water & carry in some plastic baggies. Your friends can pack their own. |

| Basil wilts very quickly unless you transport it while it is in water. Tried this and know from experience. Cindy |

| I agree, in water is best. However, if you just can't transport in a vase, you can wrap the stems in a very damp paper towel and place in a large ziploc bag with the top left open. I second the opinion to let them take the amount they want. Deanna |
