First Garden Harvest!

I clipped some of my parsley and basil. I grew basil before and it loves to be harvested. Parsley is new for me so I’m going to have to watch it and look up how to take care of it. I’m just glad my plants are growing❤️

Growing your own herbs can be a rewarding journey. Basil, known for its aromatic flavor, thrives with regular harvesting, encouraging bushy growth. It's perfect for various dishes, from pastas to salads. Parsley, on the other hand, offers a nutritious boost, rich in vitamins A, C, and K. Ensure it gets enough sunlight and water, but be cautious not to overwater. Consider expanding your garden with other herbs such as thyme and cilantro, which are easy to grow and complement many recipes. Investing in quality soil and organic fertilizers can enhance growth, leading to healthier plants. Don’t forget to keep an eye on pest control—natural options like neem oil can protect your plants without harmful chemicals.

I planted my first “real” container garden this year. I’ve tried a thing or two in the past, mostly unsuccessfully. So I’m trying again. Definitely nothing fancy, but they’ve been planted about two or three weeks now and I’ve not killed them. Just got my new dehydrator today, so going to start making my own spices and seasoning mixes too!
