In the Fall, I noticed a new fragrance in the air of my Fairy Garden. I followed the scent which led to a small container full of herbs which are great year round for cooking. After a little snooping, I discovered it was the work of Brianna who arrived short of two years ago. I sat down to talk with her and found out that she has been working with the children to learn about herbs and grow them. "That's right," I said "I remember when you were offered the job, you were so excited to teach!" We planned to meet again soon so I could take pictures of her work and possibly sit in on a class.
Start with a container. I used a typical terra cotta pot. |
Find some herbs you are likely to use in your cooking. I found this at a local Stater Bros. Market which includes Rosemary, Thyme and Sage. |
This German Thyme was found at Home Depot. |
This Lemon Thyme is also from Home Depot. |
By placing your herbs around the edges and rear of the pot, you allow yourself room to place decor of your choice to make this a decorative yet functional container garden!
