How to Grow an Herb Garden

Herbs are one of the most forgiving and the most giving plants in the kitchen garden. They’re the perfect way to get started growing your own organic food. They produce so much in a short time that you can harvest from their plants again and again. And let’s face it: herbs from the grocery store just don’t taste that great.

First, you’ll learn about the five major herb families. Learning to grow by plant families takes away the mystery of gardening and makes it all make sense. Next, you’ll learn how to source your herb plants including how to start them from seed, how to propagate your plants, and how to buy and find plants at the store that will be great for your herb garden. And finally, you will learn how to set up your own herb garden, whether that is in ground or in a container.
