Richters Herbs is a Canadian nursery and seed company based in Goodwood, Ontario.
After they began growing their own herbs, a 1969 feature article in the Toronto Star brought them wide attention.
Waltraut ran the business,[5] assisted by their son, Conrad, who has a master's degree in botany[2] Originally located in Locust Hill, Ontario, Waltraut and Otto moved the herb operation to Goodwood in 1975[6] after their farm was expropriated for the planned development of Seaton.
[3] The company pivoted to focus on herbs in the mid-1980s and began adding commercial growers to their client list.
[11] To expand the varieties of herbs the company can offer, Conrad established seed collection agencies in Nepal, Ghana, China, and Ecuador in the 1980s.
