Although herbs like celery, thyme, shadon beni and chives grow all over the island, it is safe to say that Paramin would be considered the Green Seasoning Capital of Trinidad & Tobago.
The terroir of Paramin is a signature feature of the village. Steep hills of rich soil are blanketed with fresh herbs that are enriched by the warm sun and caressed by the cool crisp air of the Northern Range.
Knowledge of the land and the conditions that have changed over the years is passed down through generations of families who have cultivated an intimate relationship with Paramin.
"Terroir (/tɛˈrwɑːr/, French: [tɛʁwaʁ]; from terre, "land") is a French term used to describe the environmental factors that affect a crop's phenotype, including unique environment contexts, farming practices and a crop's specific growth habitat. Collectively, these contextual characteristics are said to have a character; terroir also refers to this character." - Wikipedia
