Finally able to grow fresh herbs from my kitchen!

I’ve always wanted to have fresh herbs at my fingertips, but I didn’t know where to start—until now. This book made the whole process simple and doable, even for someone like me who tends to kill plants. The tips on growing and using the herbs are practical, and I’ve already started adding my own homegrown basil and rosemary to meals. It’s satisfying to know I grew it myself, and it’s made my cooking a lot more fun. If you’re a newbie to gardening like I was, this book is a great way to get started.

Garden and cooking

Growing and gardening are part of exercising, which allows us to walk on a sunny day. The audiobook gives us tips on gardening and eating healthy instead of buying takeout. I plan to garden with my family so kids can learn and enjoy the blessings of gardening. It is fun, and the history of gardening is super exciting.I like hearing about animals and how they handle fresh food and plants during gardening. Smelling fresh foods feels amazing, and I will keep this audiobook for my future reference.

Perfect starter guide. Made me want to garden.

I’d been thinking about starting an herb garden so that’s why I got this book. I found it to be the perfect book to start with. It makes growing herbs feel possible, even though I’ve never grown herbs before.
One thing I really liked was how it has tips for small spaces. I live in an apartment, so the ideas for using a trellis on a wall or hanging herbs from a curtain rod across a window were perfect for me. Plus, the suggestions for using old teapots or mason jars as plant containers are just so clever—so I won’t have to spend a ton of money to get started.
The book also gives all the basics on how to grow herbs, from planting seeds to repotting seedlings. The watering schedules and sunlight tips really helped me understand what each herb needs, which is great because I tend to either overwater or forget to water at all. The advice on trimming and drying herbs was also really helpfu, and it’s stuff I hadn’t thought about before.
But what really made this book fun was all the ideas for using the herbs once you’ve grown them. There are recipes for things like herb-infused oils, lotions, and even bug spray, which I’m definitely going to try. And the (new to me) cooking ideas, like adding herbs to butter or cocktails, sound amazing—I’m looking forward to experimenting.
Overall, this book made the whole process of growing herbs seem a lot less intimidating. If you’re even a little bit curious about growing your own herbs, I’d definitely recommend giving it a read.

Lots of Fresh Ideas!

I love my garden and I always plant herbs and I don't know what to do with them! I loved that this book went into specific ideas of how to integrate herbs into meals and different foods. That was spot-on for what I needed. In addition, it teaches how to manage your garden whether you're doing it in the ground or have containers.
