Do you like to cook with fresh herbs?
Growing an herb garden, or any plants for that matter, is a big dill and quite trendy. It can also be very therapeutic during these trying thymes. There are many benefits to cooking with fresh herbs.
You can buy fresh herbs at the grocery store but there is nothing fresher than walking over to your plant and harvesting what you need for that meal. Fresh herbs also taste better than dried varieties. Although growing your own herbs requires a little effort, it is cost saving and you know the plants history, either organic or with fertilizers under your control.
There is no thyme like the present; you can plant your own mixed herb container that keeps on giving on Thursday, March 25. The Oregon Park District and horticulture staff at Merlin’s Greenhouse have partnered to offer this workshop. Merlin’s will have a variety of herbs at the workshop and will be discussing the different varieties participants can choose from to plant. Gardeners will choose and plant 3 favorite varieties in an oval container. Learn tips and tricks for growing a successful herb garden to include caring for plants and harvesting.
