>>>>On the link you sent Uny does say "I store my herbs in their original packaging and/or glass jars (tightly sealed and 'burped of air' in the resealable foil or non-toxic plastic bags)" So I think it will be alright to leave them in the bags but I want to make sure.<<<<

If in doubt, I would put them in glass jars.



>>>>Reading this did make me wonder about the dry herbs I have on hand for teas and such. They are all stored in glass jars. If I am reading this right it says they would stay fresh this way for a year? Is that right?<<<<

Yes, that is how I read it too.

YEARLY USE

In most cases, where the herb will be used within the year, just place it into a tight can or other appropriate, closed container. Then I if you desire to keep these herbs the second year, be sure to seal those cans not in current use. Sealing is done by filling the can as full as possible to crowd out oxygen, and then sealing with wax. While the foregoing procedure is generally good for nearly all herbs, there are a few specifics (such as poke root) which lose medicinal potency on the same day they are gathered, so herbs of this type must be put immediately into tincture form.
