Ive been experimenting with the gatherers/hunters/herbalists. So far ive found that hunters will produce the same no matter where they are, ie barren plain or matured forest. For gatherers, lets assume a full forest cycle (seed to fully grown) is 4 years. Gathers are worst year one, and seem to peak year 3. Herbalists.... I have no clue. Im going to remove them from my Forester/Gatherer/Hunter combo and let them do their own thing. Perhaps having water in their collection radius?

I just checked and it's only 21 herbs per season for me. I have only one herbalist with one worker in one of my three gatherer/forester areas. So thats about 84 per year.. Not sure if winter decreases that. I am in year 20ish or so, so its been a gradual build up of the stockpile. They must not be used much because I have a wide variety of food so my people are probably pretty healthy.
I double checked and now i have 225 herbs in storage, with an additional 400 at my tradepost. So yea, it takes time to build up but with a diverse diet they don't get used much apparently.
