A Gardeners Forum Forums Members History Forum Life 2003 Greetings!

Greetings!
I'm happy that I found yoo! What a great board!

A bit about me! I'm a mom and wife, staying at home for now with my girls! We've bought a house so I'v started a garden outside, well actually a couple! I'm kinda a house plane nut! I'm really interested in herbs and there uses and growing and drying them! Some that I like so much that I have dragged them inside to spend the winter with the rest of the jungle!

I'v already learned new things here and can't wait to learn more!

Thanks all!

Hi Liz! Glad you found us.

There's a discussion down there somewhere about drying herbs. Can't remember if it's in Crafts or in Herbs. I'm sure you'd have some good experience for us there.

I love herbs, too. I grow sage, marjoram, rosemary, catmint, lemon balm, bee balm, St. John's wort, wormwood, chocolate mint and spearmint, among others. What sort do you grow?

welcome!!
