Organic Ground Fennel, Foeniculum vulgare, is also referred to as bulk organic fennel and organic fennel powder. It is a member of the Apiaceae family and is closely related to parsley, anise, caraway, chervil, coriander, cilantro, dill, and cumin.

Fennel's seeds are considered a spice, while the bulb and stalks of the plant are a vegetable and the leaves of the plant are considered an herb.

Organic Ground Fennel is popular with Mediterranean and Italian restaurants; food trucks; seasoning companies; olive oil shops; and independent spice shops.

We also carry Organic Fennel Seed and conventional Ground Fennel, Cracked Fennel, and Fennel Seed.
