Default EAST COAST Ladies! Where are you buying your Ayurvedic herbs from Locally?

I've been trying to find several different herbs at local indian stores but haven't had much luck. I'm looking for Bhringraj powder, Brahmi powder, Hibiscus Flowers, Zizyphus, Fenugreek Seed powder, Bentonite clay and Slippery Elm. I see how overpriced the shipping is online especially the shipping on Mountain Rose Herbs!

I almost bought from their store until I saw the shipping. . The items are priced pretty well but the shipping is OD! There prices are:

8oz Brahmi Powder organic $6.25

4oz Slippery Elm Bark powder organic $6.75

8oz Hibiscus Flower, whole organic $4.25

4oz Fenugreek Seed powder organic $1.75

1lb Bentonite clay $5.50

What local stores did you ladies find your organic herbs from?

I like Patel Brothers here in NJ. Their prices are very reasonable.

They have alot of locations in New York and New Jersey. Google Patel Brothers locations and the site comes up asking for your zip code and distance you are willing to drive. I go to the one in Iselin NJ.
