It’s about THYME for another CARO Cooler Surprise!

Posted on May 5, 2016

Spring is well underway and the warmer weather has summer sampling programs ramping up for our clients, and our coolers are flying off the shelves! Given the volume of bottle orders that we have been processing, we figured this would be an opportune time to highlight our next installment of cooler surprises.

For those of you who are new to our blog, our ‘Cooler Surprise’ Program is CARO’s way of injecting a bit of humour and excitement into our industry.  Included with special bottle orders is a small token of our appreciation, chosen to be both practical and fun, and intended to brighten your day in the field.

This season we have chosen to combine our appreciation for science with our love for gardening and the environment, and bring you “It’s about THYME you check out Envirochain”!  It is an ideal fit considering the exciting launch of our new website in April and the recent updates to our online client data management system, Client Connect  (read more here).

For the next two months, contained in every CARO bottle order will be a special Thyme Seed packet, with the seeds necessary to grow your very own thyme plants.  Thyme (Thymus Vulgaris) is a is an evergreen herb with culinary, medicinal, and ornamental uses. Thyme is best cultivated in a hot, sunny location with well-drained soil. Whether you are growing in a planter box on the balcony of your condo or in your backyard garden, every cooler will give you an opportunity to exercise your green thumb!
