No matter whether you live in the city or in a rural setting, literally anybody can grow an herb garden! 🪴 Fresh herbs, like peppermint, basil, rosemary, lemon balm or sage, are nature’s little helpers. They are alive with flavor and have beneficial healing properties. Herbs, either fresh or dried, can be used to enhance your meals, to make teas, and even be prepared into tinctures, salves, and capsules to be used medicinally. You can benefit from simply breathing in the fragrant essential oils released by gently rubbing your hands over their leaves. A small area in your yard, a couple of pretty pots on your patio, or even a sunny space on your kitchen counter is all you need to start your own little attractive green space. Your local nursery has everything you need to get started planting your own herb garden experience. 🪴
