Herb Gardens Are Cool!

The farmer's market was yesterday. That means two days of baking, snipping, chilling, wiping and preparing garden things, all for 2 hours of mass craziness.

Luckily, it seems that the word has gone out about the wacky herb gardener, and I was sold out of almost everything in 24 minutes! I like to bring a large cooler of homemade ice tea, to share with thirsty shoppers. It is nice when they don't even question what it is, just enjoy a cup.

I had people coming up from neighboring towns to buy my herb soaps and teas, too. The small bags of fresh cut herbs are doing much better than last year.

All of this new interest is due to herb gardens becoming cool again! If you are able to share some of your herbal knowledge this year, please do so. It is wonderful to see more people actually ask about, and use, herbs in their everyday lives. Let's spread the Green!!
