Drying Herbs
Most herbs can be cut and used fresh throughout the growing season. They can also be harvested, dried, and stored for use during the winter months. For the best quality, harvesting should be done at the correct stage of plant development. Herbs, like other garden produce, have their peak time for flavor. Full-size leaves contain the maximum amount of volatile oils providing the greatest flavor and fragrance.
Garden Basil
Basil is one of the most widely used herbs grown in the world. It was originally grown in Asia and can be found growing wild in tropical and sub-tropical regions throughout the world. Because of its many uses, basil is often referred to as the "king of the herbs". In America, basil has been grown for over 200 years.
Garden Thyme
Thyme has been grown for many centuries and has been highly sought after for its fragrance, flavor, and ornamental value. Thyme is a semi-evergreen groundcover that rarely grows more than 15 inches tall. Thyme is available in both creeping and upright types.
