Herb Harvesting

Next Tip

Previous Tip

Tips Index


Herbs can grow easily in flower beds as borders or inconspicuously in rock gardens. A small area can easily produce an abundance of food for the entire family during the growing season. Be aware, most herbs require full sunlight. Herb leaves should be harvested in the morning, just prior to flowering. Then let dry in a cool, airy place.
