A herb garden is a space used to cultivate your favourite herbs, this space can vary from a raised bed, pots and planters, and recycled items in and around the home. Growing your own herbs has a number of benefits.
Fresh Herbs — One of the best benefits of growing your own herbs is having fresh herbs right at your fingertips, whenever you want or need them.
Become a star chef – Adding a few different herbs to a simple meal gives it new life busting of flavour.
Health – Adding fresh herbs to your diet is a great way to boost your meal’s vitamin value, but that isn’t the only health benefit you can obtain. Gardening is a wonderful form of exercise. Tending, or just visiting your herb garden mini or large can do a world of good towards relieving all that built up stress that daily life give us.
