Planting Your First Herb Garden: Location, Herb Selection, and Harvest Storage

Starting your first herb garden? Begin with location (indoor/outdoor) and herb choices—must match. Sun-loving herbs fail in shade. Start small: 1–2 herbs with similar needs. Success first, then expand. Each plant yields abundantly—don't overplant.

Getting Started

Follow package directions for each herb. Note germination times to watch for sprouts. Soon: fresh herbs for favorite meals.

Storing Your Harvest

Best method: drying. Wash picked herbs; dry thoroughly. Bundle stems with string; place in paper bag. Hang indoors for weeks until fully dry. Crumble; spread on cloth-covered pan for final drying. Store in airtight jars for winter use when fresh unavailable.
